The scenario, which, to be honest, was outlined some time ago, is now on the verge of official confirmation. Gazprom, the gas giant, played a crucial role: Vanja Drkušić signed for Zenit this week, securing a five-year contract, but despite the club from Saint Petersburg paying 4 million euros for him, the Slovenian international is swiftly moving elsewhere. To a club where Gazprom also has a significant influence: Vanja Drkušić will play for Crvena Zvezda.
The scenario is not surprising; in fact, it is more than expected. The prediction, which has been in the air for several months, has come true. Although Osasuna made a strong last-minute push, attempting to bring the former Bravo player to the elite La Liga, it was in vain. The Spanish club could not break the ties between Zenit and Crvena Zvezda, ties that are fueled in various ways by Gazprom.
Vanja Drkušić will arrive in Belgrade tonight, joining Crvena Zvezda, where Timi Max Elšnik recently signed. He will join on a one-year loan. His million-euro salary will be covered by none other than Gazprom, and according to Russian media, the clubs are already discussing whether it would be possible for Vanja Drkušić to extend his stay at Marakana beyond just one season.
