The goalkeeper of St. Petersburg's "Zenit" team, Mikhail Kerjakov, shared his thoughts with media representatives about the return of Brazilian midfielder Vendel to the team. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
He stated that Vendel's late return to the team could be related to transfer issues. Kerjakov assessed this situation as normal and emphasized that it is understandable for the player to return late.
In the new season, the 27-year-old Brazilian midfielder Vendel has participated in only one match in the Russian Premier League. Under the leadership of head coach Sergey Semak, the "Zenit" team will hold their next match on August 9 away against Grozny's "Akhmat" team.
Currently, various situations related to transfers are being observed in the "Zenit" team. Changes in the player roster and the process of integrating new players into the team are ongoing.
According to Kerjakov, Vendel's late joining of the team will not cause any problems within the team, and he will quickly adapt to the full squad. Thus, "Zenit" continues to strengthen its roster ahead of the new season.
