Attack SKA Arseniy Gritsyuk told that he did not know the Zenit newcomer Alexandra Soboleva but his teammates explained to him who it was.
Sobolev officially became a Zenit player on Friday. The 27-year-old footballer signed a three-year contract with the “blue-white-blue” with the possibility of extending for another season. The presentation ceremony of the Zenit newcomer took place on Friday during the presentation of the SKA roster for the new KHL season, which took place at the Repino-Leninskoye country club in the Leningrad region.
– Today Sobolev tried to steal your vacation, at one point it even worked.
– No, it went well. I didn’t really know what was in store for us, but I had already seen the photos on Telegram. I asked the boys and they explained who he was. It’s great that we combined his idea with ours. Mixed football and hockey. My father didn’t understand exactly from the broadcast who this new player was. I’ll call you now and explain who is who.
— Did you manage to communicate with him?
– No, actually, I’m not very good at football. I’m not interested at all. Yes, his name says a lot about Russian football, but not for me, – Gritsyuk told .
Sobolev played in 140 matches for Spartak, scoring 58 goals and 32 assists. As part of the “red and whites”, Sobolev won the Russian Cup in 2022.
