According to journalist Ekrem Konur, the Russian Premier League side has identified 21-year-old center-back Jonathan Jesus from Cruzeiro as a primary target. This move is directly linked to the future of their current defender, Nino, who is the subject of ongoing transfer discussions with Brazilian giants Palmeiras.\n\nThe strategic interest in Jesus is not merely about adding depth. The report indicates that securing the young Brazilian would provide Zenit with a clear contingency plan, allowing the club to confidently continue negotiations with Palmeiras for Nino's transfer. The São Paulo-based club is reportedly waiting for the conclusion of the Russian football season to advance the talks, making Zenit's proactive scouting a crucial step in managing their defensive roster.\n\nJonathan Jesus, despite his youth, has already gained valuable first-team experience. In the current season, he has made 16 appearances across all competitions for Cruzeiro, contributing one goal. His performance has evidently caught the eye of European scouts, with Zenit now leading the chase. The player's market value is currently estimated at €3 million by Transfermarkt, a figure that reflects his potential and existing contract length.\n\nThe defender's long-term commitment to Cruzeiro is secured, with his contract running until the summer of 2029. This lengthy deal means any transfer would require a formal negotiation and a fee that meets the Brazilian club's valuation. For Zenit, the €3 million price tag represents a relatively modest investment for a young player with significant upside, especially when viewed as a direct replacement for a senior squad member.\n\nThis potential transfer triangle highlights the interconnected nature of the modern transfer market. Zenit's move for Jesus is contingent upon the successful sale of Nino, which in turn is waiting on the Russian league calendar. The club is effectively planning for multiple outcomes, ensuring they are not left short-handed in a critical defensive position regardless of how the Nino saga unfolds.\n\nFor Zenit's supporters, the news signals a forward-thinking approach from the club's management. Rather than waiting for Nino's departure to scramble for a replacement, they are identifying and potentially securing a successor in advance. This proactive strategy aims to maintain squad stability and competitive strength as they prepare for future campaigns.\n\nBased on reporting from Чемпионат.com.","news","Zenit targets 21-year-old Cruzeiro center-back Jonathan Jesus as a €3M replacement for Nino, whose sale to Palmeiras is pending the end of the Russian season.","328268358317248513","326135625054949376","Premier League","0","2026-05-08T18:16:38Z","zenit-eyes-cruzeiro-defender-as-nino-replacement-3m-deal","Championat","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.championat.com\u002Ffootball\u002Fnews-6461262-zenit-vidit-v-zaschitnike-kruzejro-zamenu-na-sluchaj-uhoda-nino-konur.html","326257544127320064","Palmeiras",[74,77,78,79,80,81,82,83],"326257544391561216","326222711569256448","326257611768860672","326222707169431552","326257539962376192","326257546392244224","326257613643714560",[75,85,86,87,88,89,90,91],"Cruzeiro","Brazil","Zenit","Anderlecht","Como","Nottingham Forest","Hassania Agadir","Zenit Eyes Cruzeiro Defender as Nino Replacement: €3M Deal",[94,124,154,179],{"awayTeamId":-1,"awayTeamName":-1,"body":-1,"category":64,"excerpt":95,"homeTeamId":-1,"homeTeamName":-1,"id":96,"leagueId":67,"leagueName":68,"matchId":69,"matchName":21,"publishedAt":97,"slug":98,"sourceName":99,"sourceURL":100,"teamId":101,"teamName":102,"teamIds":103,"teamNames":113,"title":123},"Pierre Sage is set to join Crystal Palace after leading Lens to Coupe de France glory.
