Former Russian national football team player Alexander Mostovoy appreciated the possible departure of forward Artyom Dziuba from Zenit. His words are quoted by RIA Novosti.
“Why Zenit doesn't want to leave him is a question for me. Perhaps the time has come, ”said the legendary footballer. He noted that Dziuba is still an important figure in Zenit.
Mostovoy stressed that the forward would suit Rubin, but everything will depend on the player's wishes. At the same time, he noted that the team's result in the season is terrible. ““ Ruby ”completely failed the first part of the season. They sing, dance, dance, but the result on the football field is deplorable, ”said Mostovoy.
On December 26, “Championship.com” announced that the head coach of the blue-white-blue Sergei Semak did not want to extend his contract with Dzyuba. The agreement with the footballer expires in the summer of 2022.
On December 25, it became known that Rubin had negotiated with the blue-white-blue about the player's transfer to the Kazan club. According to Metaratings, the striker's salary in the new team will be one million euros per year, excluding bonuses.
Dziuba has been defending Zenit's colors since 2015. As part of the blue-white-blue, he won the Russian Championship three times and the Russian Cup twice. This season, the Russian Premier League striker has scored ten goals in 18 matches.
