“The old horse is furrow, so it doesn’t break the arrow. Maybe Boyarsky wanted a horse,” said Salikhova.
The possible transfer of Fernandez to Zenit was announced on July 6 by Brazilian journalist Alexandre Prezel. The actor has repeatedly stated in numerous interviews that he plans to play in Russia only for CSKA. He spent 10 years in the Moscow team and won the national championship three times and the Russian Cup once.

In December, CSKA allowed Fernandez to stay at Internacional on a one-year loan. It was learned that he left the team in April 2023.
