CEO of Zenit Aleksandr Medvedev noted that the St. Petersburg club expects to find rivals in international matches in the context of Russia’s removal from tournaments under the auspices of Uefa And FIFA.
The international aspect is very important: we find the opportunity to play international matches. We have already played in Sochi with Crvena Zvezda, having collected a record of 30 thousand people, and more games are planned before [зимнего] pause – I hope nothing stops them from holding. There are many countries to play with. We are already thinking and consulting these countries, with their federations, with their leagues about what kind of international matches we could play, and also not just individual matches, but also tournaments.
