Football expert Franco Kamotschi commented on Jerson's transfer to St. Petersburg's Zenit club. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
According to him, 25 million euros is a bit high for a player with such inconsistency. Jerson joined Zenit this July.
The Brazilian player was bought from Flamengo for 25 million euros. Zenit signed a 5-year contract with the new player.
The forward will take the field wearing the number 9 jersey. He will play his first match on July 20 against Rostov in the first round of the Russian championship at home.
In Kamotschi's opinion, Jerson's price may have been slightly inflated, as the player cannot always perform at the same level. Therefore, the club management and fans need to closely monitor his performance on the field.
The Zenit team has high hopes for the new player and believes he will help the team.
