Jesus told the Brazilian newspaper "TNT Sports": "Although I am experiencing a new experience for me, in addition to my young age, I see that I have presented my best season, compared to the period I played in Brazil, as I scored 21 goals, and participated in 40 games, which is a very good average for a 20-year-old. ”

The Brazilian player talked about the reasons for his brilliance with Shabab Al-Ahly, saying: “When Shabab Al-Ahly contracted with me during the last summer transfers, I knew very well the importance of appearing well in my first period with the team, and its impact on my future, especially since it is my first experience outside Brazil, while I came to a new country for me, and the atmosphere is completely different, from all sides, but despite this the good start in the matches I participated in at the beginning of the season contributed to my gaining confidence on the part of the coaching staff and the players.
He continued: "I had some goals that I set when I came here, and I was able to achieve these goals, in terms of the rate of my participation with the team, and the percentage of goals, while the most important thing is that Shabab Al-Ahly won three titles, which is very important to my career."
Igor Jesus concluded his remarks by saying: “I think it is time to get a rest now, so that I can return in the next season in a better way, especially since maintaining the performance that I showed and achieving the same rate of goals requires great effort, which is what I will work to achieve. ».
