Thus, M. Lucescu already received from Zenit (St. Petersburg) 2.5 million euros - for the fact that his contract and the club was ripped early. This information was distributed by "Fontanka".

And earlier, coach Lucescu reported that he wants to get from Zenit four million euros - for the fact that he did not finish one year of the agreement signed earlier, but the parties all turned to a compromise amounting to 2.5 million. It is known that the coach planned to apply to FIFA - if Zenit refused to pay Lucescu his compensation.

As reported URA-Inform, Lucescu as early as 2016 reported that he was thinking of withdrawing from "Zenith".
