The former president of Moscow's Lokomotiv, Nikolay Naumov, explained why Crvena Zvezda midfielder Nair Tiknizyan has high motivation in the match against Zenit. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
According to him, this is not only related to Tiknizyan's failure to transfer to Zenit last year, but it is also necessary for him to establish his place in his new club. Naumov stated that Tiknizyan performs at a very high level. It is worth noting that the teams will meet on June 29 in Sochi as part of the Super Series.
The match will start at 19:00 Moscow time. Tiknizyan could have transferred to Zenit earlier, but he declined.
As a result, at the end of the 2024/2025 season, he left Lokomotiv and decided to continue his career at Crvena Zvezda. The friendly matches between Zenit and the Belgrade club have become a tradition during the off-seasons. These games provide an opportunity for the teams to prepare and exchange experiences.
Thus, this match is of great importance for Tiknizyan, and he strives to give his all. His high motivation will be clearly visible in the match against Zenit, making it an interesting and eagerly anticipated game for the fans.
