St. Petersburg footballer “Zenith” Alexander Kovalenko shared his thoughts on the number of legionnaires in the team, and also told how their adaptation is going.
“Did I start learning Portuguese? While heavy language. I pick up a few words. This is max. There were also legionnaires in the “Wings”. There is a feeling that there are even more foreigners than Russians, because they are noisy (smiles). But everything is fine, the most important thing: the atmosphere is very good. So it’s OK. Who understands Russian better than anyone? I think Mario, Santos”, quotes the Championship player.
Recall that Kovalenko moved to Zenit from Sochi.
Also, ex-soldier Mario Fernandez joined the St. Petersburg club, and team leader Malcolm went to Saudi Arabia.
