Defender Robert Renan is one of Corinthians’ most sought after players in the football market. He could also be involved in a possible negotiation for the permanence of Yuri Alberto at the San Paolo club.
However, according to sources heard from the report, the 19-year-old defender does not want to go to Zenit from Russia due to the war situation in the country.
It is worth mentioning that Yuri left the Russian club only because of the war between Russia and Ukraine, which lasted almost ten months. Balbuena and Maycon also returned to Parque São Jorge due to the same situation.
To close friends, Robert Renan would have expressed that he would not want to be part of the negotiation, only because of the country of destination. Here he feels he has more visibility, but as a professional he would accept the decisions of the Juventus council.
On the other hand, the player’s staff have received a proposal of the order of 12 million pounds (about R$ 75 million, at current prices) from an English club, kept confidential. The offer has passed to Corinthians, who are evaluating the terms of the deal.
It is worth mentioning that Alvinegro holds only 55% of the player’s economic rights, and the proposed figure would be for the entire pass. 20% of the rights belongs to Novorizontino, his former club, and the remaining 25% divided between the athlete and his representatives.
If the parties reach an agreement, the São Paulo club would therefore have around 6.6 million pounds (R$41.1 million) in this deal.
Zenit and Yuri Alberto
The general director of Zenit, Alexander Medvedev, is in Brazil and one of the topics covered during the week was the negotiation for Yuri Alberto’s stay at Corinthians.
According to the report, Robert Renan’s name came up as a way to reduce some of the cost of the striker.
Other players, such as Gustavo Mantuan, who is already at the Russian club, could also be involved, with the exception of Adson, according to a Russian newspaper.
The mayor of São Paulo, Ricardo Nunes, met Alexander Medvedev, leader of Zenit, yesterday, according to the official agenda released by the politician.

The number 9’s loan will last until June 2023 and Alvinegro’s intention is to extend the loan. However, high numbers are a big obstacle, hence the need to involve other athletes.
Zenit want to cash in at least 25 million euros (about R$137 million, at current prices), more or less what they have invested, to free the player.
In light of this, the Sao Paulo club are hoping they can count on the loan pair there to cut a certain amount (goalkeeper Ivan has a fixed value of 5m euros (R$27m) and Mantovano, 15m euros (R$ 27 million) $ 82 million)) .
Robert Renan Numbers
In total, Robert played 13 games this season, ten of which were for the Brazilian championship and the other three for the Copa do Brasil, with one assist paid and only two yellow cards taken.
In the Brasileirão he always started and averaged 1.9 interceptions per game, 1.7 tackles, five cuts and no errors leading to a goal by an opponent, according to the SofaScore🇧🇷
