Portuguese football agent Paulo Barbosa told that the transfer of the defender Dejana Lovrena from Zenit to French Lyon suggests that there are ways to solve the problem of transferring funds to Russian clubs.
Zenit announced the transfer of Lovren to French Lyon on Monday. The player signed a 2.5-year contract. The 33-year-old Croatian has been playing for the Bleu-Blanc-Blues since 2020, becoming a double Russian champion. Due to sanctions imposed on Russian banks, transferring funds for transfers can be difficult.
– If the contract is signed, there is no doubt that the option has been found. I know it’s technically possible. Of course, there is such a problem among European clubs as transferring funds for transfers to Russian clubs, but you see, there are solutions too, Barbosa said.
– How many years do you think Lovren will play at a high level?
“At least two or three years. Lyon, in other circumstances, would not have invested in him. Also, Dejan showed well at the World Championships, I think that’s how long he will stay in the top.
