"Man City" defender J. Garcia will play in Russia

"Manchester City" and St. Petersburg's "Zenit" clubs have reached an agreement regarding the transfer of midfielder Javi Garcia to Russia.

During two seasons with the English champions, J.Garcia played 71 matches and scored two goals.

With "Man City" he managed to win two titles - the English Premier League and the Capital One Cup.

In the past, the footballer has played for Lisbon's "Benfica" and Madrid's "Real" clubs.
