Alexander GovorovCorrespondent SportAll materialsFormer Zenit striker Artem Dzyuba caused a storm of emotions among Turkish football fans and journalists. His first match for Adana Demirspor is eagerly awaited, and someone even recalls juicy facts from the biography of the hero of the World Cup in Russia. Everyone was waiting to see where Artem would go next. For the past few years, he has been stubbornly matched with European clubs, but time passed, and the Russian did not leave. This summer the situation has become critical. First, the political environment has drastically reduced the number of options available. Secondly, Artyom is already 33 years old, and at that age it is difficult to decide to move abroad. Dzyuba trained for half the summer with Rubin Kazan, who had been relegated to the First League at the end of last season in the company of his friend Leonid Slutsky. There were even rumors that Artem might stay in Kazan and spend the season there, but the transfer abroad did take place. The hero of the home world championship 2018 goes to Turkey to the Adana Demirspor club, which, by the way, is now leading in the local championship. Yes, only two rounds were held there, but still. This team is coached by the famous Italian Vincenzo Montella. It includes Mario Balotelli, Younes Belhanda, Benjamin Stamoubuli and Artem's old friend from Zenit Ukrainian Yaroslav Rakytsky. In general, a serious brigade got there, so Dzyuba's arrival in Turkey is expected.
