Former striker and ex-player of Samarkand's "Krylya Sovetov" team Sergey Kornilenko evaluated the squad of St. Petersburg's "Zenit" for the new season. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

Kornilenko believes that almost all positions in the "Zenit" team are filled with backup players, and there is healthy competition for places in the starting lineup. For example, the battle between Glushenkov and Lusiano can serve as an example.

He emphasizes that such competition serves the interests of the entire team. Last season, the team led by Sergey Semak finished second in the championship, just one point behind "Krasnodar."

During the season break, the club signed contracts with midfielder Jerson and defender Roman Vega. A total of 32.7 million euros was spent on their transfers.

These purchases are aimed at further strengthening the "Zenit" team's power for the new season. Overall, it is said that the team roster is competitive and well-formed.
