Head coach of “Shakhtar” Mircea Lucescu is looking for a new job.
The Russian newspaper “Sports day after day” reports on the talks between Lucescu and “Zenith” – the Romanian specialist wants to sign a three-year contract with an annual salary of four million euros, and the St. Petersburg club Lucescu offers a two-year agreement with the possibility of unilateral rupture in the event of failure of the tasks set by the coach.
The fact of negotiations between Lucescu and Zenit confirms a reputable football agent Shandor Varga believes that the head coach “the miner” should not have any problems with achieving success in Russia.
“I can confirm the fact of negotiations “Zenith” with Lucescu. Mircea worked in Eastern Europe, adapted to the mentality. For me the mentality of Ukraine is comparable with Moscow and St. Petersburg. From the “Zenith” logical move is to negotiate with such a professional,” said Varga.
