Former Russian national team player Aleksandr Mostovoy commented on the possibility of Manfred Ugalde transferring to the CSKA club. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
According to media reports, the "army men" club considered the option of transferring the Costa Rican player, but the player himself did not express a desire to move to another Russian club. Mostovoy believes that selling one of Spartak's leading players directly to a rival club is pointless.
Additionally, CSKA is not ready to spend 20-25 million euros on Ugalde. As he noted, the "army men" prefer to find young players at lower prices and focus on developing them.
Although Ugalde became the top scorer of the Russian championship last season with 17 goals, he has yet to score in the current season. This situation has sparked further debates about the player's future and transfer possibilities.
Overall, the rivalry and transfer policy between Spartak and CSKA are expected to remain in the spotlight in the coming seasons.
