Playing for "Zenit", Andrey Mostovoy aims to become the best player in Russia.

The midfielder of the "Zenit" team from St. Petersburg, Andrey Mostovoy, has reached an age where it's crucial not only to participate in games but also to emerge as a team leader and aim for the title of Russia's best player, former captain Vladislav Radimov noted.

Since joining "Zenit" in 2019, the 27-year-old player has appeared in 21 matches across all tournaments this season, scoring six goals and providing three assists.

— How do you evaluate Andrey Mostovoy's game? Does he have the potential to play in European clubs? — I am familiar with Mostovoy from his time at "Zenit‑2", he was with my team. He is now in excellent form. In my opinion, Mostovoy is at the age where he needs to not only play but also lead "Zenit", something he achieves in most matches. If I were Andrey, I would set a goal to compete for the title of the best player in the country.

In 18 rounds of the RPL, "Zenit" has earned 39 points, trailing "Krasnodar" by tiebreak scores. In the first tournament after the winter break, "Zenit" will face "CSKA" at home on March 1.
