Viktor Faizulin: I’d like to try myself in the La Liga

Zenit St. Petersburg midfielder Viktor Faizulin commented on the speculations that he may leave the Russian champions in the summer.

«Last spring I did consider quitting Zenit, numerous clubs offered to sign me, but none of them really convinced me to leave Saint-Petersburg. And then Semak and Shirokov got injured and I got my chance in the first team, which I took,» admitted the Russian international.

«I think the best position for me is central attacking midfielder – I try to emulate Iniesta, David Silva and Luka Modric, they are my favourite players. I generally prefer Spanish football to the EPL. It suits me better: a lot of passing and technical play. I’d like to try myself in the La Liga one day,» Faizulin stated, speaking to ProSport.
