Football expert Alexander Shikunov expressed his opinion on the recognition of FC Krasnodar striker Jon Kordoba as the best player of the season in the Russian Premier League. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
In his view, Kordoba deserved this title as the team secured the championship. Additionally, when discussing other candidates, Shikunov noted that Umgalde could not maintain his high level towards the end of spring, while Batrakov and Glushenkov faded from the field.
Last season, the 32-year-old Kordoba played in 25 matches, scored 12 goals, and provided 7 assists. Thus, FC Krasnodar succeeded in becoming the champion of the Russian league for the first time, finishing just one point ahead of Zenit.
This success is a significant event in the club's history, marking a new chapter for the team. According to Shikunov, Kordoba's performance and the team's achievement were recognized by many fans and experts.
He contributed to the victory with his consistent performances throughout the season. Thus, FC Krasnodar and Jon Kordoba reaped the rewards of their hard work at the end of the season.
