André Villas-Boas can finally breathe a sigh of relief! Fired by Tottenham last December, the Portuguese coach, whose name was mentioned in several European clubs, has just signed with Russian club Zenit St Petersburg.
Announced as imminent for several days already, the arrival of Andre Villas-Boas, 36, at the controls of Zenit St. Petersburg has been formalized Tuesday morning. The agreement covers a two-year contract, which includes this end of the season and whose term will be set in the summer of 2016.
The signing and the presentation of the Portuguese manager will take place on Thursday.
