Message from Aleksander Sekulić
This moment is not easy for me.
I want to sincerely thank the Zenit fans, the players, and everyone inside the club who supported me from day one. Leading this team was an honour I will always respect.
This season tested us. Injuries disrupted our continuity, our rhythm, and at times our confidence, leading to results none of us wanted. I take my share of responsibility, but I also know how much work, fight, and heart this group showed every single day behind the scenes.
What matters most now is Zenit’s future. I wish them the best of luck.
I leave with pride, gratitude, and respect. And with the firm belief that this club belongs at the very top.
Thank you, Zenit family.
