The former footballer called Zenit the champion of Russia

Vitaliy Dyakov, a former player of the "Dinamo" football club in Moscow, named the main contender for the championship title in the upcoming season of the Russian Premier League. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

According to him, the "Zenit" team is celebrating its centenary, and it will be very difficult to compete with rivals during this time. In Dyakov's opinion, "Zenit" is the main candidate and should secure the championship title. Last season, the team led by Sergey Semak finished in second place in the league table.

For the first time in history, the "Krasnodar" team claimed the championship title. Among the winners of the competition is also the CSKA team from Moscow, which won the Russian Cup.

These circumstances have made the Russian Premier League one of the most competitive and exciting seasons. In the upcoming season, "Zenit" is expected to emerge as a strong team and be the main rival for the championship.

At the same time, other teams are also striving to showcase their potential. League fans are eagerly awaiting the new season.
