Gerson Rodrigues: I covered my Dynamo Bentley in gold AI

Luxembourg winger Gerson Rodrigues, now at Zorya Luhansk, recalled buying a used Bentley while at Dynamo Kyiv and having it delivered to the club base. He says he completely covered the car in gold; today he no longer drives it and uses taxis, he told Sport.ua (Oct 8, 2026). A vivid firsthand detail from a former Dynamo player that illustrates the club’s high-roller culture in Kyiv during his time there — visible on the training ground.

Gerson Rodrigues, the Luxembourg winger currently playing for Zorya Luhansk, told Sport.ua that when he first joined Dynamo Kyiv he bought a used Bentley and had it brought to the club’s training base so teammates could see it. Rodrigues said he then covered the car in gold, describing the gesture as part of wanting to show off and match the club’s luxury-car culture at the time.

He also recalled buying a car earlier for his mother in Luxembourg and said he no longer lives that way: “Now I go by taxi,” Rodrigues said, adding that he does not regret the experience because it taught him lessons. The interview was published on October 8, 2026.
