According to the Sochi press service, the lease agreement was signed before the end of the current season.
On January 21, Sochi announced the lease of Kokorin, but after that the player’s agent repeatedly stated that the player did not want to move to another club. As a result, he was transferred to the Zenit-2, with which he passed the first training camp in Turkey. On February 13, the player’s agent nevertheless announced that his client would move to Sochi.
Earlier it was reported that the board of directors of Zenit approved an agreement with Sochi on Kokorin.
