Football manager Timur Gurtskaya in a video on his YouTube channel “This is football, bro!” He assessed the cost of Russian forward Alexander Sobolev’s possible transfer from Spartak Moscow to Zenit St. Petersburg and also explained why the player is so angry.
“I think it’s around 10-12 million euros, considering Sasha’s clear position that he definitely wants to leave. He has this position because I’m sure Sobolev was furious with Willian Jose’s arrival. He took it very, very painfully,” Gurtskaya said.
On July 1, Spartak announced the signing of Spanish Betis forward Willian Jose.
According to media reports, Spartak and Zenit are negotiating for Sobolev’s transfer. Journalist Ivan Karpov reportedWhile Muscovites are ready to part with the forward for 30 million euros, the current champions of Russia are not ready to pay such a sum for the player – a maximum of 20 million euros.
Sobolev has been playing for Spartak since 2020. In total, he played 139 matches for the team, scoring 58 goals and making 32 assists. His contract with the club runs until the summer of 2026. In the completed season of the Russian Championship, Sobolev played 27 matches and scored five goals.
