The management of St. Petersburg Zenit has decided to part ways with Brazilian defender Mario Fernandez. The publication reports this “RB Sports”.
According to the source, the decision was made due to the insufficient physical shape of the former Russian national team player, which, according to the blue-white-blue coaching staff, will not allow him to return to his previous level.
It was noted that the club and the player will end their cooperation by July 31, 2024.
On July 7, 2023, Zenit introduced Mario Fernandez as a team player. The parties signed a contract with the 1+1 system. On March 23, 2024, in a friendly match with Red Star, 32 minutes after entering the field, football player Fernandez was injured and was substituted.
