CSKA is a more obvious competitor to Zenit than Spartak, Gladilin believes
The ex-footballer of Spartak Valery Gladilin told RB Sport that Spartak needs to improve the game in order to become the main rival of Zenit next season.
– Will Spartak become the main competitor of Zenit? I don’t see any competitors at Zenit yet. CSKA is a more obvious competitor of St. Petersburg than Spartak. They won the Russian Cup this season and took second place. Perhaps the task of winning the championship will be set by Lokomotiv, Dynamo, Krasnodar, but Zenit has no obvious competitors yet.
– What does Spartak need to become the main rival of Zenit for the championship?
– Put the game, but it’s not there yet. Who wants to win the RPL, he needs to improve the game. Semak managed to do it.
At the end of the 2022/23 season, Zenit became the champion of Russia, CSKA came second, and Spartak came third. The army team also won the FONBET Cup of Russia, defeating Krasnodar in the Superfinal.
