Flamengo fans were surprised on Wednesday night (05), after Zenit (RUS) send a proposal by Gerson. Initially, the Russian team offered 28 million euros (about $ 158 million in the current price) to take the midfielder from Mengão. However, the red-black board has already decided that, for that value, there is no business.

According to information from the 'red-black paparazzo', the Flamengo board will only open a negotiation to sell Gerson with a proposal from 35 million euros (about R $ 210 million). Still, it is noteworthy that the most beloved would not easily accept the business, requiring contract goals to achieve higher values for Mengão.
Player is critical in the squad
This is because, Gerson is one of Flamengo's main players. In addition to being captain, the midfielder is a key player for the tactical scheme of coach Filipe Luís. With this, to sell the player, the Russian team will have to offer unimaginable values and the negotiation would only advance after the Super World Club, as the Fla has shirt 8 for the competition.

spared
It is worth remembering that Gerson did not enter the field this Wednesday (05), in the defeat of Flamengo 5-0 against Portuguese-RJ. This is because, the midfielder, as well as the other holders, were spared from the game, aiming at the classic against Fluminense. The decision came from coach Filipe Luís, who understood that the rest time between the matches would be short. p style = "border: 1px Solid RGB (197, 0, 24);"> Gerson on field
