Zenit (RUS) demands the same 25 million euros (R$ 155 million at the current exchange rate)


Gerson recently arrived at Zenit (RUS), after leaving Flamengo in the last transfer window. The midfielder has been linked to Palmeiras in a possible return to Brazilian football. As a result, the Russian club has set the price for the player's sale.

According to the website ‘Gazeta Esportiva’, Zenit is demanding the same amount it paid to Flamengo to sell Gerson. In other words, the Russians want 25 million euros (R$ 155 million at the current exchange rate) to negotiate the former Flamengo player.

The Palmeiras board sees the situation of Gerson as a market opportunity, considering the midfielder's interest in returning to Brazil. The midfielder was recently transferred by Flamengo and has played only six matches in Russia.

WHAT IS THE CONTEXT OF THE SPECULATION?

Gerson is said to have spoken with Palmeiras about a possible return to Brazil, according to journalist Felippe Facincani. At the moment, the São Paulo team is in initial talks to try to sign the former Flamengo player, who is currently not being used.

WHEN DOES FLAMENGO PLAY?

Flamengo remains focused on the final stretch of the season and is working in pursuit of more titles. Thus, the Most Beloved will take the field on October 15, against Botafogo, at Estádio Nilton Santos, in a match valid for the 28th round of the Campeonato Brasileiro.
