During the summer transfer window, the Zenit team spent 25 million euros on midfielder Jerson. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
Last weekend, the Brazilian player made his debut for the St. Petersburg team. Famous former footballer Igor Semshov shared his thoughts on Jerson.
He wants to know where and in what role the new player will be used. According to Semshov, Jerson will play in the central midfield.
He accelerates attacks and can act individually. His position mainly corresponds to that of Vendel or Claudinho.
Jerson has a powerful shot, has good field awareness, and his technique and ball control are at a high level. This is a quality reinforcement for the team and will help Zenit.
It should be noted that in the first round of the Russian championship, Zenit defeated Rostov 2:1 at home. The victory was achieved with determination.
Currently, the team, led by Sergey Semak, is preparing for an away game against Rubin on Sunday, July 27. Last season, Zenit finished second in the Russian championship standings.
