Olga Smorodskaya, who previously served as the president of the "Lokomotiv" club, commented on the imminent transfer of midfielder Zhedson Fernandes to the "Spartak" club. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
According to information, this transfer will be the most expensive incoming transfer for the "red-whites," amounting to 20 million euros plus bonuses. Smorodskaya stated that it is illogical to buy such an expensive player during the tenure of "Spartak" head coach Dejan Stankovich.
She described Stankovich not as a real coach, but as a large theater actor, emphasizing that such expenses are unprofitable for the club. She also mentioned that Fernandes would not bring any benefit to the team.
In the summer, "Spartak" extended its contract with Dejan Stankovich until mid-2027. This decision may impact the team's future plans.
Nevertheless, debates around transfer and coaching issues continue. It is crucial to make the right decisions for the club's future and success.
