Laxalt, the latest on negotiations with Zenit: exclusive interview with the player's agent

In an exclusive interview with the agent of Diego Laxalt, Ariel Krasouski spoke with GianlucaDiMarzio.com on the interest from Zenit in his client, and the promise made by Genoa president Preziosi. The negotiations with Zenit began at the start of July, and now they could begin again, and perhaps move forward decisively. "Yes, it's true. Zenit really like Laxalt, and they have spoken with Genoa to request information. The Russian club has changed sporting directors and contacts will start again soon. Last year after the transfer with Atalanta fell apart, Genoa president Preziosi promised Diego that he would let him leave within a season if a commensurate offer both for him and the club arrived. Genoa value him at €20 million, we are waiting for the clubs to start talking again after the new Zenit sporting director settles into his role. Diego though is very happy at Genoa, he considers this city and this club his second home. He has grown a lot wearing this shirt, he has gained the respect of all of Serie A and thanks to Genoa he has been called into the national team, having a good showing in the World Cup."
