Zherson will be presented in the Zenit squad on July 9

Zenit team is on the verge of finalizing the transfer of midfielder Zherson from Flamengo. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

The chairman of the Petersburg club, Aleksandr Medvedev, answered a question about when Zherson will arrive in Saint Petersburg. After a few days of rest, he will come to the Zenit team base.

The player will be presented in the match against Sion, Medvedev said in an interview with Sport-Express. Zenit and Sion teams will hold a friendly match on July 9.

Earlier, it was reported in the media that the 28-year-old Zherson wanted to move to Zenit. Although Al-Nasr club offered the midfielder a significantly higher salary, he had already made a decision regarding the transfer and was late.

This situation did not affect the transfer process. This transfer is important for the Zenit team, as Zherson is expected to improve the team's playing style.

The team management and coaches are trying to resolve all matters related to him quickly. Zenit fans are ready to welcome the new player.
