The former head coach of the Russian national team, Stanislav Cherchesov, commented on midfielder Jerson, who plays for Brazil's "Flamengo" club. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
He mentioned that St. Petersburg's "Zenit" club is planning to buy this player.
According to Cherchesov, Jerson scored a goal in the match against "Bayern," but the number of goals is low compared to his level and market value. He has made more assists, but this is still less than expected from the player.
The specialist expressed these thoughts during a broadcast on the YouTube channel "Komment.Show." Earlier, the media reported that St.
Petersburg club would pay 25 million euros for Jerson's transfer. Jerson is 28 years old and has participated in 253 matches for "Flamengo."
In these matches, he scored 19 goals and made 34 assists. Jerson's arrival at "Zenit" is expected to strengthen the club's midfield.
Coaches and specialists believe that the player can further improve his game and benefit the team. This transfer is said to potentially bring new interesting changes to the Russian championship.
