– Is it reasonable to spend so much money on foreigners in the current situation?
– A stranger is different to a stranger. More like Claudinho or Barrios, and less consumer goods. So, with all the sanctions, the market will work wisely. Let’s say that little-known Latin American footballers from the Dominguez agency came to Orenburg. With their help, we got our cool striker Sychevy out. Here is your answer.
– That is, without foreigners there will not be such a development of Russian players?
– Sure.
– It is clear that England with billions in spending went far ahead, but Russia is tied with Holland, Belgium and Portugal, whose clubs reach Eurocups milestones. Where is the logic here?
– From the point of view of the current state of affairs, there is little logic. But in football, as in any business, the principle prevails: sell more than you buy. The Portuguese do it regularly with a hook of a billion. And we have their Danny was and remains a record for domestic transfers. The conclusion is obvious.
– Are you talking about the long-term transition of the Portuguese from “Dynamo” to “Zenith”?
– Then we did not have such money, but here they disposed of 30 million at once.
– We talked about the fact that exclusion from international competitions should be a catalyst for the development of our own youth. Difficult route clubs still not looking?
– The house is built from the foundation. While the children’s coaches will be paid 20 kopeks, our football will not take a step forward. In Germany, it is the most honorable profession, but among our young mentors, after training, they still have to get drunk to feed their families. RPL clubs are very far from the taximeter, trust me. There are exceptions, like the Krasnodar school, but these are isolated private initiatives. Yes, and for them, on the whole, big questions.
– Let’s go back to 143 million for international transfers. What value do you place internally?
– Add another two-thirds of this amount.
– Are agency fees included here?
– No, these are transfers between clubs.
“So what is the agent’s part in this delicious pie?”
– Less than 100-110 million.
– Previously, there were two incentives for Latin Americans or Africans to move to Russia – to earn money and shine in Europe. When there was only one left, how much did their interest in the RPL drop?
– It is clear that if you are not shown anywhere, no one will see you. 125 countries bought the broadcasting rights from Saudi Arabia when Ronaldo arrived. Television today decides everything, so when it’s not there, then there’s nothing at all. They think more carefully now, although there are still benchmarks like Malcolm.
– That is, if Malcolm is still playing in Russia, then you can go?
– More or less like that.
– To what extent should the RPL club’s proposal be more interesting than the European one for the conditional Malcolm to go to Russia?
– If it is Brazil, there is a wide range of prices. We must seize the moment. At one time, Berdyev could buy Robinho for one and a half million, but in certain actions. But a little later, Real Madrid signed him for 45 million.
– The program “buy for little – sell for a lot” in Russia, of course, does not work. Here an example of “Benfica” or “Ajax”?
– Another Shakhtar. There they are doing something fantastic. Taking for 8-10, and giving for 80-90 is now a common story.
– Are you talking about Mudrik at Chelsea?
– It is a special situation, and very strange, as for me. But the guy can play.
– They always sell in the dark…
– So what! You will remember Willian, Tymoshchuk, Chygrynskiy at Barcelona for 25 million, who did not play a single game there. Well done management!
– Well, by what do Russian club owners continue to be guided when making irrevocable injections?
– Perhaps measure oneself on the margins of power, or somewhere at the table.
– There was no movement in the opposite direction, and no. Zakharyan will not leave for England, there is also some kind of hitch with the Turkish version of Barinov. Why is everything so difficult?
– In the case of Barinov, Lokomotiv wants to sell expensive, as was the case with Beka-Bek. As I understand it, they are looking for options through Serbian banks.
– Europe does not want Russians, or do they themselves not burn with the desire to penetrate into the unknown from hot places?
– First.
– Your Dynamo Tyukavin ward is friends with Zakharyan. How does he feel, for example, when the contract with Chelsea, which was already on the table, is broken?
I do not enter their souls. But would he play from the start?
– Will Tyukavin himself leave?
– Sooner or later, but not only where. And it’s definitely not Anderlecht. Kostya is only 20 years old.
– Well, Kvaratskhelia – 21 years old, and today he is one of the strongest. Maybe it’s better earlier, when you’re still hungry for the game?
– It’s hard to disagree here, but there are certain obligations to the club that we have to fulfill.
– A few words about winter transfers to the RPL. The most significant, in your opinion?
– Everything is ahead. Until February 24, when the transfer window closes for us. So far, only Lovren’s departure from Zenit can be seen as something significant
– And what about the arrival of regular Brazilians there?
– They took Renan just instead of Lovren. But I don’t think anything will depend on this change of terms. There, the game is built around Barrios.
– Youth in “Zenith” is not yet at its zenith, like Arshavin and Kerzhakov, but the desire is obvious, isn’t it?
– Well, if they take 40 people to the training camp, it is clear that they want to attract more and more of their own.
– “Spartacus”. Overall, do you like what happens after Fedun?
– It’s not about Fedun. I found a great trainer.
– You marked Abascal what the light is worth…
– It was, I admit. The main thing is to admit the error.
– Why did they make a mistake, then?
– It was the first approximation. Then I saw his playful and emotional message. The whole bench runs to congratulate him after the goals.
– Under Carrera, wasn’t it?
– Carrera played the same. Abascal always puts those he considers the strongest at the moment. Without such confidence, Prutsev would not have played.
– Dziuba is here and there, but ultimately, nowhere. Why is everyone rejecting him?
– Someone does not want to organize KVN in his club, others do not want to risk the microclimate. I don’t want to say anything bad about Artem, but he had a chance at the World Championships in Russia, which he more than took advantage of. But what’s next!
– That is, write a sentence for him?
– If a person calls Emery “coach”, and Mancini “complete …”, he signs everything for himself. Any coach who has worked with Dzyuba is lucky. Especially those he marked with the last word. Semak, of course, did not return and will not return for the same reasons.
– And “NN” and “Torpedo”?
– In Nizhny they are still thinking, but in Torpedo everyone was for him, except for coach Talalaev.
– So far, by the way, there are surprisingly few transitions in Russia. A trend ?
– Overall, only the first collection passed. All will be.
– I have no doubt that Berdyev’s arrival in Sochi is considered the main winter transfer?
– Honestly, I’m interested to see what he’s going to do today.
– You were waiting for the Argentines there, whom Kurban Bekievich loves so much. Doesn’t it seem that they no longer want to move from the country of the world champions to Russia, or even to Sochi?
– Do not confuse countries and people. Borders are just lines on maps.
