Barannik: Jerson Santos is not fully ready yet

Dmitriy Barannik, a former player of the “Zenit” team, evaluated the performance of Jerson Santos, who joined the “Zenit” squad during the summer season. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

According to him, it is currently difficult to form a complete opinion about Jerson Santos, as the player seems to not be fully physically prepared yet. Barannik emphasized that Jerson's passes to open spaces are average and such actions can be performed by other players as well.

For this reason, it is not appropriate to expect high results from Jerson Santos at this time. For reference, Brazilian midfielder Jerson Santos joined the “Zenit” squad from the “Flamengo” club in July of this year.

The club paid 25 million euros for his transfer. So far, the player has not shown effective performance in the Saint Petersburg team and has not scored any goals or provided any assists.

Jerson Santos will have the opportunity to score his first goal for “Zenit” on August 3. On that day, the Saint Petersburg team will face Moscow's CSKA in the third round of the Premier League at home.

Active actions are expected from Jerson in this match.
