Former Zenit player Oleg Shatov shared his thoughts on the performance level of Jerson Santos, the midfielder of the St. Petersburg club. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
According to Shatov, it is currently difficult to fully assess Jerson's transfer, but his skills as a player are noticeable even in the initial games. He is a member of the Brazil national team, which demonstrates his experience and talent.
Shatov emphasized that Jerson will need more time to adapt to the Russian Premier League. This is because the Russian championship has its own unique characteristics, and not every player can quickly adjust to this environment.
Jerson has played in three matches for Zenit so far, but he has not yet stood out with goals or effective actions. Jerson's labor contract with Zenit is set to last until the middle of 2030.
The club's management and specialists are expecting higher results from him. At the same time, the player's adaptation to the new league is ongoing, and there is still time to expect higher results from him.
