Bulykin: Safonov plays stronger, Khaikin plays more confidently

Former Russia national team striker Dmitriy Bulykin shared his thoughts about goalkeepers Nikita Khaikin and Matvey Safonov. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

Currently, Nikita Khaikin plays for Norway's "Bodø/Glimt" club, while Matvey Safonov is active in France's "PSG" team. The euro-football.ru website reported on this topic.

According to Bulykin, Matvey Safonov has an advantage in physical attributes. Nevertheless, Nikita Khaikin has proven himself at a high level.

He has demonstrated stable and reliable performances for "Bodø/Glimt," showing that he is capable of leading the team to important victories. Additionally, notable matches are expected in the Champions League playoff stage.

On February 17-18, "PSG" will face "Monaco," and "Bodø/Glimt" will play against Italy's "Inter." These matches are sure to attract great interest from football fans.
