Slavoljub Muslin expresses a desire to sign http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roman-Shirokov-c31645 from Zenit St. Petersburg – Football News
FC Krasnodar head coach, Slavoljub Muslin, has lavished praise on Zenit St. Petersburg’s Roman Shirokov, saying that he would like to sign the 31-year-old midfielder this summer if there is any possibility.
"Should I sign Shirokov, Why not? I will sign him only if he decides to leave Zenit. I think he will have plenty of other good suggestions because he is such a great player with excellent technique. I will not make a promise but
it will please the fans. But at the same time I can understand the player is ambitious to play in a stronger league. I think he is still the best player of our championship, he showed his class in the domestic campaign and he is still the best player in the
national team,” the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Red-Star-c40350 Belgrade man was quoted as saying.
Zenit may allow Shirokov, who joined the St. Petersburg club from FC Khimki back in 2008, to leave at Petrovsky stadium given that they will not get a penny next summer when the player’s current contract will expire next summer.
If speculations are to be believed, Monaco FC and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 FC are tracking Shirokov, who has scored five goals in 25 league appearances this season. However, the Russian star failed to score in the Russian Cup and European competition.
News in Russian media emerged after the player himself expressed a desire to leave the Russian Premier League club in the near future.
Muslin went on to tell that Shirokov should have joined them had they qualified for the European competition last season. Krasnodar finished at the 10th spot on the league table with 42 points and remained nine points
adrift from European spot last term.
Speaking on Wanderson, Muslin heaped praise on the Brazilian striker after saying that every manager would like to have such a player in his team. Wanderson ended the season on top of the highest goal scoring players table with
13 goals last term.
Muslin went on to assure the fans of not letting http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wanderson-c36641 leave the Russian outfit in the near future and said that he is expecting the 27-year-old to score more goals next season.
