Maksim Glushenkov failed to turn up for a scheduled contract signing with Zenit this week, agent Timur Gurtskaya has said, choosing to go fishing instead once he learned what the club had offered Alexei Tyukavin.

"This week Glushenkov was due to extend his contract with Zenit. Everything had been agreed, all the figures. But Glushenkov said he would no longer sign on those terms. They had agreed a renewal at three million euros. After that he found out how much Tyukavin had been offered. Glushenkov did not turn up for the signing at all, he just went fishing," Gurtskaya said on the show "Eto futbol, brat!".

Glushenkov, 27, joined Zenit Saint Petersburg in February 2026 and has scored eight goals for the club since.
