Semshov stressed that Zenit aims to fight for the championship and for Tiknizyan this represents a new challenge. The footballer now plays a key role in the Lokomotiv team, and taking into account Krugovoy’s possible departure from Zenit, the vacant position may be filled. Additionally, Tiknizyan has positional flexibility, which makes his transfer a good prospect for Zenit. Tiknizyan is not a player ready to stay on the bench, and Zenit’s interest in him is not accidental.
