Earlier, the chairman of the board of directors of Zenit, Elena Ilyukhina, announced that a new five-year contract on improved conditions with head coach Semak would be signed on May 25, the 99th anniversary of the club.

Semak deserves another five years to work in this club! This agreement does not present any risk for either the coach or the club. Zenit is one of the best European clubs that anyone would be happy to work for. Many even dream of working in a St. Petersburg club,” Semin said according to Sport24.
