Sergei Semak said that it is difficult for Zenit to buy Russian players because of their prices
Zenit head coach Sergei Semak spoke about the team’s difficulties due to the cost of the players they want to acquire. His words leads “Championship”.
“The more ready a player is, the higher his cost, the less ready, the lower. It’s about foreigners. In the Russian market, prices are completely different for us,” he said. Semak explained that because of this, it is difficult to get at least three or four players with a Russian passport, and foreigners are cheaper.
Semak added that in any case, the transfers will not greatly affect the team. “We won’t be able to invite someone, we can. But globally, the club is unlikely to become weaker, ”he said.
Earlier, the former Zenit striker Alexei Gasilin complained about the hard life of the players. He urged not to criticize the players for high salaries, noting that out of millions of athletes, few reach good earnings. “Being a professional footballer is hard work. You spend your entire childhood not knowing if you can make it or not. Football players take risks, donate, so everyone’s salaries are justified, ”Gasilin said.
