Zenit has reached an agreement to sign Baltika defender Kevin Andrade for €3.2 million, with the transfer expected to be finalized in the coming days. Insider Ivan Carpov reported the news on his Telegram channel, and sources close to the deal have confirmed it.
Notably, Lokomotiv had offered around €4 million for Andrade, but the railway club proposed paying the sum in installments. In contrast, Zenit is prepared to pay the full €3.2 million upfront. Additionally, Andrade personally preferred a move to Zenit over Lokomotiv.
Previously, sources indicated that Andrade was close to reaching an agreement with Zenit. This season, the 24-year-old has played 30 matches across all competitions, scoring one goal. His current contract with Baltika runs until the summer of 2027.
