Athletistic / Football. Zenit striker Pedro said that in the future he is ready to consider the issue of obtaining Russian citizenship.
“At the moment it is too early to talk or even think about a Russian passport. But I know the stories with Malcolm, Claudinho and Mario (Fernandez – Rating Athletistic). For the moment, I am only interested in professional issues directly linked to football. It’s important for me to prove myself at Zenit and achieve something special here. And only then, if circumstances develop in a particular way and everything is favorable for this, why not consider the possibility of obtaining a Russian passport? Everything is possible! But at the moment I’m not thinking about it,” Pedro said, as quoted by Rossiyskaya Gazeta.
Pedro became a Zenit player in January 2023. The 18-year-old striker graduated from Brazilian Corinthians. In all kinds of rankings, he is one of the most promising footballers in the world born in 2006.
