Zhevnov started his career in the third division. In 2000, he signed for BATE Borisov.[1] During a 2004–05 UEFA Cup qualification match against Dinamo Tbilisi he scored a goal from his own half.[2] In 2005, Zhevnov signed for FC Moscow. On 23 February 2010, he moved to Zenit Saint Petersburg from FC Moscow on a four-year deal.[3]

International career

Zhevnov is a former captain of the Belarus national team[4] and made 58 appearances.[5] On 3 September 2010, he captained Belarus to a surprise 1–0 victory over France at the Stade de France. "This is definitely one of the biggest wins in our history, but it's going to take a bit of time before we realise what we've done," said Zhevnov. "Victories give you strength and confidence, so we hope to build on this."[6] Belarus have never appeared in a major tournament, and Zhevnov set qualification out of Group D for the UEFA Euro 2012 tournament as the team's primary goalkeeper.

He has Belarusian and Russian citizenships.
