Andre Villas-Boas has agreed to a deal that will see him taking over the manager’s position at Russian giants Zenit St Petersburg.
The former Chelsea and Tottenham boss has agreed to a two-year deal according to reports coming out of Russia.
The 36-year-old Portuguese manager was sacked at Spurs in December following a series of bad results and will now replace Italian coach Luciano Spalletti.
“Zenit has agreed terms on a contract with new head coach Andre Villas-Boas,” said a statement on the club’s website.
“Mr. Villas-Boas will be presented in St. Petersburg as Zenit’s new head coach on 20 March.”
