Semshov: Jerson is a stronger player than Enrique for Zenit

The former midfielder of the Russian national team, Igor Semshov, expressed his thoughts about Jerson, a player from Brazil's Flamengo club. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

It became known that St. Petersburg's Zenit team is interested in him. According to Semshov, Jerson is considered a high-level player.

Technically, he is even stronger than Enrique. If Zenit's head coach Semak directs him in the right way, it will be very good for the Russian championship, the expert emphasized in an interview on the "Match TV" channel.

Earlier, it was reported in the media that the 28-year-old player is also wanted by Saudi Arabia's Al-Nasr club. Jerson has played 28 matches for the Brazilian national team this season, scoring two goals and providing four assists.

His performance has been a great help to the team, showing high results. Jerson's experience and skills at Flamengo could bring significant benefits to Zenit.

Additionally, the relationship between the coach and the player is crucial for success. This transfer could serve to elevate the level of Russian football.
