Tottenham were linked with a move for Flamengo midfielder Gerson, and as per recent reports Spurs’ latest bid has been rejected by the Brazilian club, who are not in a hurry to sell their midfield talent.
Gerson began his youth career with Fluminense, and progressed through the ranks and made it into the first team at the club. He was linked with several European clubs in the summer of 2014, but he stayed on at the club after signing a new five-year contract.
Gerson was again linked to several top clubs like Barcelona and Juventus but finally decided to sign for Roma in the 2015-2016 summer transfer window.
