Gerson's departure to Zenit St. Petersburg in the last transfer window changed the course of his recent career. The midfielder, a fixture on the Brazilian national team, has not been mentioned by Carlo Ancelotti since the transfer . The deal brought in €25 million (approximately R$160 million at the time) for the Mais Querido's coffers, a sum paid upfront by the Russian club.
Luiz Henrique, Gerson 's teammate at Zenit, revealed that he maintains close contact with the former Mengão player and highlighted that both have sought to maintain focus and physical fitness for a future opportunity with the national team.
"We talk daily. Gerson and I told each other to stay 100%, because Carlo Ancelotti has already said he's monitoring all the players. It doesn't matter if the athlete is in Russia or England," said Luiz Henrique.
The striker also emphasized that the Brazilian national team coach has been repeating that everyone is being watched: " Just because we're in Russia doesn't mean we're no longer being seen. We're maintaining our dedication, because the opportunity can always come, " he added.
Despite the multi-million dollar transfer, Gerson has yet to replicate the prominence he enjoyed at Flamengo at Zenit. In Brazil, he established himself as a starter and an important player for the national team under Carlo Ancelotti. However, his adaptation to Russian football has been more difficult, which may have contributed to his absence from recent call-ups.
