Agent Luis Fernando Garcia, representing the interests of Zenit striker Malcolm and midfielder Claudinho, said that his clients would not leave the Russian club.
On June 21, the International Football Federation (FIFA) issued a press release stating that foreign players and coaches will have the right to suspend their employment contracts with Russian clubs until June 30, 2023.
– Specific proposals? I can only say that Malcolm and Claudinho remain at Zenit,” RB Sport quotes Garcia.
Last season, 25-year-old Malcolm and Claudinho became champions of Russia. The forward played 35 matches, scored 9 goals and made 8 assists. The midfielder has 10 goals and 5 assists in 31 meetings. Claudinho was recognized as the best player in the RPL.
