Ex-head coach of Shakhtar Mircea Lucescu left the same position in Zenit.

The legendary Romanian specialist after only one year of work in the St. Petersburg club leaves him, the Russian press reports..

According to media reports, Zenit's management does not want to continue cooperation with the 71-year-old coach because of the unsatisfactory results of the team. Pitertsy finished in third place in the Russian championship, which did not allow the team to compete for an exit in the Champions League.

Let's note that Lucescu was led by Zenit before the start of this season, having signed a two-year agreement, after 12 years of work in Donetsk Shakhtar.

The Italian edition of La Gazzetta dello Sport reports that Lucescu in Zenit will be replaced by former mentor Inter and Manchester City Roberto Mancini.
