The former president of Tashkent's "Lokomotiv" club, Olga Smorodskaya, considers the price paid for the new player of "Spartak," Jedson Fernandes, to be excessively high. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
She noted that the Portuguese midfielder previously played for Turkey's "Besiktas" and has now joined "Spartak" for 20 million euros. According to Smorodskaya, this transfer price is very expensive, and the "Spartak" club does not deserve such a transfer through its activities.
In particular, she expressed this opinion about the team's head coach Stankovich: "It seems that the 'Spartak' management considers him a good specialist, but I do not agree with that," she said. According to reports, before the transfer of Jedson Fernandes, the most expensive player in the "Spartak" team was central striker Liva Garcia, for whom 18.7 million euros was paid.
Additionally, five years ago, attacking midfielder Gus Til was also purchased for 18 million euros. Thus, Jedson Fernandes became one of the most expensive transfers in the history of "Spartak"
