25-year-old Gerson switched from Flamengo to Marseille in the summer of 2021 for 20 million euros. He was asked by then coach Jorge Sampaoli. But the Brazilian does not fit into the plans of the new trainer Igor Tudor and was allowed to leave. He was no longer in the selection in the last competition matches. Gerson leaves Marseille after 61 games with 13 goals and 10 assists.
Flamengo puts 18 million on the table for the attacking midfielder, who also played for AS Roma and Fiorentina.
