Zenit St. Petersburg, champions of the last three seasons of the Russian League, want to sign big and build a competitive team to play the Champions League.
Thus, the team where the Colombian Wilmar Barrios plays wants to hire a young Brazilian attacker with great potential to play alongside Artem Dzyuba, their leading forward.
And that is why he is willing to pay a considerable sum of money to take a quality leap in his hiring and sign a footballer who is contesting the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games.
As reported by the portal ‘Goal’ In Brazil, Zenit would pay 25 million euros for Matheus Cunha, head of Brazil in the Olympics and a figure for Hertha Berlin in Germany.
The 22-year-old footballer has spent five seasons in Europe: one year in Switzerland (FC Sion), and four in Germany (Leipzig and Hertha Berlin). He is a player adapted to the Old Continent and in excellent condition with his national team.
However, Cunha dreams of making the leap to a league like the Premier of England or LaLiga Santander, in Spain, because he feels that he can succeed. Although the offer from Zenit has not been ruled out, as there is no other team that has offered a good amount of money to the German club.
Zenit signals to pay 25 MM euros for Matheus Cunha, forward of Hertha Berlin (Germany) and the Brazilian Olympic team.
