Gerson is Flamengo's newest signing. The 22-year-old midfielder signed from Roma and has a contract until December 31, 2023. He is the club's third signing this summer.
Discovered by Fluminense, the midfielder transferred to European football in January 2016 and played for Roma in Italy. In July 2018, he was loaned to Fiorentina for a year.
"Very happy, it's an honor to play for Flamengo. I'm looking forward to getting there. Wearing the Sacred Mantle and playing for the biggest crowd in the world. I'm packing my bags and I'm getting there. As the Mister says, it's win, win, win. Greetings Flamengo fans, we're together, and now I'm a Mengão fan!" Gerson celebrated.
The player will arrive in Rio de Janeiro in the coming days to join the red-black squad.
