Former goalkeeper Valeriy Novikov commented on the information regarding the criticism of Fabio Chelestini, the new head coach in Switzerland, for agreeing to work in Russia. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
Chelestini took over from Marko Nikolić. Nikolić terminated his contract with the capital club and became the head coach of AEK in Greece.
According to Novikov, Fabio is a big, experienced person who knew in advance how he would be treated upon arriving at CSKA. He believes that criticism may have little effect on him.
Under Chelestini's leadership, the "army men" defeated the "Amkal" team from the Media League with a score of 4:0. On July 12, in Kazan, CSKA will face the current national champion "Krasnodar" for the Russian Super Cup.
This match will be an important test for the teams. Chelestini and his team are striving to achieve good results in the new season.
Their goal is to reach high positions in Russian football and gain the trust of the fans. Additionally, the coach approaches his work professionally and accepts all criticism constructively.
This situation demonstrates how coaches and teams respond to challenges in the world of football. It is important for players and coaches to always strive to meet high standards in their professional field.
