Arturo Vidal was ruled out by Martín Lasarte for the duel this Tuesday of the Chilean team against Bolivia for the qualifying rounds to Qatar 2022 and the Inter Milan midfielder will have to wait until the Copa América roster to return to La Roja, if Machete so decides.
Vidal recovers after catching coronavirus and his future at Inter has been a mystery for several months. And his possible departure from the Lombards takes more and more force considering the policy of lean cows that the Italian club implemented after winning the scudetto in Serie A, a fact that even triggered the departure of Antonio Conte on the bench.
Now, market rumors suggest that Arturo Vidal could emigrate to Russian football, specifically to Zenit. This is reported InterLive in Italy according to the press in the former Soviet country.
“A Russian club for the ‘problem’ Vidal”, they report. They add that “Inter have several problems, one of them is Arturo Vidal. The Nerazzurri club wants to get rid of him to save the salary that reaches 8 million euros gross. You cannot do it completely to zero and, for example, the termination of the contract has a cost close to a million euros. Although the cost is less, you would incur a loss”.

“The sale is not easy precisely because of the high salary with a contract that expires in 2022, and because the person born in 87 intends to stay in Europe and play for a club that disputes the Champions League”, complement.
And the argument is not minor, because Zenit will play the Champions League, the old desire of King Arturo and a tournament that the Chilean midfielder does not want to miss for anything in the world next season.
Despite having a disappointing season, including physical reasons for meniscus surgery, Vidal still has several fans across Europe. In addition to the Marseille of his mentor Sampaoli, according to the information collected is that the 34-year-old player is also an alternative to Zenit Saint Petersburg “they add.
They say that “unlike Olympique de Marseille, Zenit led by Semak will play in the next Champions League after having won the Russian Premier League. In addition, the Russian club has the financial potential to guarantee the 22 Nerazzurri a contract of at least 4 million euros ”.
Vidal celebrated the Serie A title at the Italian Calcio with Inter.
