Former "Spartak" player Vladimir Obukhov commented on the transfer of former forward Anton Zabolotny to the club. This was reported by www.euro-football.ru.
According to Obukhov, Zabolotny is very suitable as a key point of attack for the "red-white" team. He stated that "Spartak" is currently looking for a forward similar to Sobolev, and Zabolotny meets this requirement.
After Aleksandr's departure, although the team applied pressure in the final minutes, they were lacking a tall forward in the penalty area. Obukhov said this in an interview with "RB Sport." Obukhov also noted that "Spartak" is not at any financial risk in Zabolotny's transfer, as the forward can be acquired for free as a free agent.
Anton Zabolotny recently celebrated his 34th birthday. Last season, he played for the "Himki" club, but the club was unable to obtain a license due to financial problems and ceased operations.
For this reason, Zabolotny's transfer to a new team seems certain. Overall, his experience and effectiveness in the game could be an important addition for "Spartak."
The team made this decision to strengthen the attacking line. In Obukhov's opinion, Zabolotny fits well into "Spartak's" attacking strategy and will help the team in competition.
