One of Flamengo's main players in 2024, Gerson has been fundamental under Tite's command. Last Sunday (15), in a 1-1 draw with Vasco, the midfielder scored Rubro-Negro's goal and stood out once again. This year, Gerson leads the list of Serie A athletes with the most minutes on the field since returning from surgery at the beginning of the season.

In March 2024, Gerson underwent kidney surgery due to hydronephrosis, a problem kidney that kept him away from Flamengo for around a month and a half. Since his return, the athlete has participated in all 37 Flamengo matches, in addition to two more for the Brazilian National Team.

Top-5 Serie A Athletes with the Most Minutes (After Gerson's Return):< /b>

1. Gerson (Flamengo) – 3246 minutes

2. Marcos Felipe (Bahia) – 3108 minutes


3. Fabrício Bruno (Flamengo) – 3077 minutes


4. Weverton (Palmeiras) – 3028 minutes

5. Agustín Rossi (Flamengo) – 3020 minutes


Of Flamengo's 37 games since the medical problem, Gerson started 32. The midfielder was a substitute in the first three matches of the Brasileirão, while he regained his rhythm after surgery, and was also on the bench in the duel against Botafogo, after playing 90 minutes against Bolívar (BOL) at altitude, in the group stage of the Libertadores.

After that, Gerson started 21 consecutive matches as a starter. He returned to the bench only in the game against São Paulo, in the second round of the Brasileirão return, when Tite opted for an alternative team. Gerson entered the final part of that match.
