What is the problem with such players being bought by Spartak? Both them and Krasnodar and Lokomotiv are the same has resources.
Any player, just the same Brazilians, understands that it is better to play for Zenit than for Spartak, where they will not become champions. There is always turmoil in Spartak, it is not clear what is happening. “Zenith have the strongest management in Russia, they buy players wisely and take away the gold trophies,” said Kanchelskis.
