Italian defender Domenico Criscito could be about to leave Russian giants Zenit, according to his official representative.
The full-back has been flirting with a return to Serie A for a couple of years now despite playing an important role in the side.
Considering that Criscito will be out of contract in June 2018 and has not yet been offered a new deal, a winter exit could now be on the cards for the Zenit captain.
His agent Andrea D’Amico is clearly surprised the 30-year-old has not heard from the club yet about a contract extension.
“Domenico has already stated he’s proud to play for the St Petersburg club and he’s happy to be the captain,” Andrea D’Amico told Russian news agency Tass.
“To date though there have been no offers for a possible extension of his contract. The contract will expire in 2018, we’re still waiting for a call from the board.
“Sooner of later though we’ll have to start negotiating with the teams showing an objective interest in the player.”
Domenico Criscito joined Zenit from Genoa back in 2011 and went on to make 144 league appearances, scoring 13 goals.
