Gyrano Emilio Kerk (born 2 December 1995) is a professional footballer who plays as a right winger for Belgian club Royal Antwerp. Born in the Netherlands, he plays for the Suriname national team.

Club career

[edit]

Kerk started his club career at Utrecht in the Eredivisie.[3] Kerk is a youth exponent from FC Utrecht. He made his Eredivisie debut on 28 September 2014 in a 3–1 away defeat against FC Twente.[4] One week later, he scored his first goal against Go Ahead Eagles in a 3–2 home defeat.[5]

Lokomotiv Moscow

[edit]

On 1 September 2021, Kerk signed a four-year contract with Russian club Lokomotiv Moscow.[6]

Loan to Royal Antwerp

[edit]

On 21 January 2023, Lokomotiv announced that Kerk would finish the 2022–23 season on loan with Antwerp in Belgium.[7][8] Antwerp confirmed the transfer on 28 January 2023.[9] On 4 June, Kerk scored a goal for Antwerp in their 2–2 draw against Genk on the final day of the Belgian Pro League season, a result which secured the club their first league title in 66 years.[10]

On 30 August 2023, he helped the club secure a spot in the group stage of the UEFA Champions League for the first time ever, by scoring a goal in the second leg of their 3–1 aggregate victory over AEK Athens in the play-off round.[11]

Release by Lokomotiv

[edit]

On 4 July 2024, Lokomotiv announced that Kerk's contract with the club has been suspended under FIFA regulations for the 2024–25 season, and as it was expiring at the end of the same season, he effectively became a free agent.[12]

International career

[edit]

Born in the Netherlands, Kerk is of Surinamese descent.[13] He was called up to the Suriname national team for a set of World Cup qualifier matches in June 2024.[14] He made his debut for Suriname on 5 June 2024 against Saint Vincent and the Grenadines at the Dr. Ir. Franklin Essed Stadion. He started the game and played 63 minutes as Suriname won 4–1.[15]

Kerk went on to feature in three Concacaf Nations League games in the remainder of 2024 against Guadaloupe, Costa Rica and Guyana.[3]
