Athletistic / Basketball Well-known commentator Vladimir Gomelsky spoke about the exodus of legionnaires from the camp of the champion of the VTB United League – St. Petersburg “Zenith”.

“It’s clear that strong legionnaires have received offers. These are people who want to play in the strongest tournaments. They tend to look for where it’s better. Today it’s better not at Zenit. It couldn’t be otherwise. It seems that they would have to pay a penalty to the club in order to be able to move to another team before the end of the season”, quotes Championat.com Gomelsky.

Recall that today we learned about the departure of three American “Zenith” legionnaires – Billy Baron, Jordan Loyd and Jordan Mickey.

In the last season of the VTB United League, Zenit won the first championship in its history by beating CSKA (4-3) in the final series. Javier Pascual’s wards were able to win the series, losing 1-3 along the way.
