Journalist Ekrem Konur reports on his social network page X that two Serie A clubs are negotiating and planning to make an offer to Zenit of about €10 million for defender Nino. According to Konur, Zenit are demanding €10-12 million for the transfer of the footballer.

Nino stated that he has not personally received any news and that his entourage handles such matters. He said he is focused on Zenit and on playing another good game before the end of the calendar year. Nino also mentioned that he feels very happy at the club, where he has always been treated well and understood. He added that he feels great affection for Zenit and specified that any potential situation concerning his future would also have to be good for the club.

According to a report from ESPN Brasil, Zenit is ready to negotiate the sale of Brazilian footballer Nino. A main reason for Nino's potential departure from Zenit is concern for his son, who has Down syndrome.

According to ESPN, Zenit is willing to negotiate the transfer of Nino during the next transfer window in order to create a spot for a foreign player in their squad. This decision is part of the club's strategy to invest in young South American players who could yield future financial returns. Nino is not contemplating a return to Brazil, as the player and his staff intend to remain in European football. A personal issue concerning his son, Antonio, is also a factor in the potential departure.
