Midfielder Gerson remains on Cruzeiro’s radar for 2026, but the club already knows he will face the tough Zenit match, due to the player’s good form following his return from injury.
Gerson is a special request from Tite, with whom he worked at Flamengo and in the Brazilian national team. To have a chance of going to the World Cup, I would like to resume the partnership.
However, the Russians will not make it easy financially. After paying 25 million euros, they demand a higher sale price, just six months after Gerson left Flamengo.
Gerson also had his name speculated by Palmeiras, who, like Cruzeiro, has yet to make an official offer, only investigating the player’s desire to return to Brazil.
