Zenit fans launch hashtag on Twitter # Leave Kokorina in support of striker Alexander Kokorin.
Fans were unsatisfied with the news that the 28-year-old striker will move to Sochi before the end of the season on loan.
Also on the Change.org website there was a petition addressed to the president of Zenit, Alexander Medvedev, demanding that Kokorin remain in the team. It is currently signed by 194 people.
On Tuesday, in a friendly match against the Qatari club Al-Uweinah (10-0), Kokorin left the starting lineup with a captain’s armband, designed a hat-trick and made an assist.
Zenit has not yet confirmed the information on the player’s transfer, and the head coach of the blue-white-blue Sergey Semak told Instagram that he is counting on Kokorin. It is noted that the striker himself does not want to leave the St. Petersburg club.
