Gerson’s dad predicts fans’ mood as son plays Flamengo v Cruzeiro | OneFootball

What does Marcão, Gerson's father, expect from Flamengo's fans this Wednesday (11)?

Midfielder Gerson will face Flamengo for the first time since joining Cruzeiro. Given this situation, Marcão, the player's father and agent, believes that the rubro-negro fans will ‘give the player a hard time’ during this Wednesday's (11) match at Maracanã.

“I think it will be a bit hostile, but I hope the fans will also understand. They can boo, they can shout, but with organization—there's no need for violence. No need for craziness. But if they want to boo, they can. If they want to applaud, they can applaud.”, said Marcão in an interview with ‘TV Globo’.

WHAT HAPPENED BETWEEN GERSON AND FLAMENGO'S FANS?

Gerson ended up having his relationship with Flamengo fans shaken after a turbulent departure to Zenit (RUS) in the middle of last season. At the time, the midfielder was one of the leaders and captain of the rubro-negro team, but even so, he chose to leave the club at the end of the Super Club World Cup.

Besides the ‘shock’ of his departure, fans were also upset when they saw Gerson return to Brazilian football in less than six months. Earlier this year, the player was announced as Cruzeiro's new signing.
