Kerimov: Jikiya will be the main defender at Antalyaspor

Football commentator Elvin Kerimov shared his opinion about the future of Russia's defender Georgiy Jikiya at Turkey's Antalyaspor club. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

According to the expert, the club has seen Jikiya as one of the main defenders alongside Sariga from the beginning. They could be seen in the starting lineup in the second round.
