Ruslan Pimenov, Deputy General Director of Krylya Sovetov, stated that the club is open to considering offers for forward Ivan Sergeyev. He emphasized Sergeyev's excellent form and contribution to the team. Pimenov humorously expressed hope that other clubs will show interest in Sergeyev, indicating the club's readiness for dialogue. The discussion highlights the balance between valuing Sergeyev's goals and the potential financial offers that might come for him.

Ivan Sergeyev, who was previously a forward for Zenit Saint Petersburg, is now playing for Krylia Sovetov. During the summer transfer window, CSKA Moscow's head coach, Marko Nikolic, had considered the possibility of signing Sergeyev. Nevertheless, the transfer did not take place because the club adheres to a policy of signing players who are under 25 years old, and Sergeyev is 29. Nikolic had expressed his interest in Sergeyev during an appearance on the YouTube channel 'This is Football, Brother!'. Sergeyev's contract with Krylia Sovetov is set to remain in effect until the summer of 2027, and his market value is estimated at €3 million according to Transfermarkt.

The release clause in the contract of forward Ivan Sergeyev with Samara's Krylia Sovetov is €10 million. Additionally, Zenit has a buy-back option, and 30 percent of any resale is due to Zenit, according to a source familiar with the situation reported by Championat.
