Dejan Lovren wins back-to-back titles as Zenit triumphs in Russian Premier League

As it turns out, the only player from the 2019-20 Liverpool squad to win the league in the following campaign is Dejan Lovren.

The Croatian centre-back won the Russian Premier League with Zenit Saint-Petersburg with two games to go. On Sunday, they hammered their closest challengers Lokomotiv 6-1.

"I'm really happy, it's incredible! This is what brings me a lot of emotions. That is why I came here - to win trophies with this wonderful club. This is one of my happiest days. Maybe, I was a little happier when I moved here," the 31-year-old told his club's official website.

Lovren has been injured for the last month (after all, he was a Liverpool centre-back) but before that, he played a significant role in Zenit's success, playing 21 games and scoring 2 goals.
