The English Football Association refused Haykin sports citizenship

The English Football Association has refused to recognize British sports citizenship for Russian goalkeeper Nikita Haykin, who plays for the Norwegian club "Bodø/Glimt". This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

Earlier, it was reported that the footballer had decided which national team to represent and chose Norway. Additionally, the goalkeeper indicated British sports citizenship instead of Russian on his profile.

The English Football Association stated that according to their recommendations, they do not discuss or disclose information regarding the registration of individual players. Norwegian journalists emphasized that Haykin would be a strong improvement for the national team and reminded that the team has almost secured qualification for the 2026 World Cup.

Furthermore, Haykin decided to obtain a Norwegian passport for family reasons. He is dating a Norwegian woman and they have plans to get married.

This decision signifies important changes related to the footballer's personal life and sports career. Thus, Nikita Haykin is stepping into a new phase not only on the field but also in life.
