Hulk admits that he could leave Zenit St. Petersburg in the January transfer window due to issues with manager Luciano Spalletti.

Zenit St. Petersburg striker Hulk has admitted that he will leave the Russian club in the winter window if a dispute with manager Luciano Spalletti is not resolved.

The Brazilian forward has been vocal about his problems with Spalletti, who substituted him in the 80th minute of Zenit's 1-0 win over AC Milan last night.

"I feel fine in St Petersburg, my family is fine and my son is fine," Hulk told Premium Calcio. "But if the situation with Luciano Spalletti does not resolve itself, I could leave in January. I don't know if Italy would be my destination, but anything can happen."

Premier League outfit Chelsea were thought to be in the running for Hulk's signature during the summer when he was at Porto.
