Celestini started learning the Russian language

The newly appointed CSKA head coach Fabio Chelestini commented on learning the Russian language. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

Recently, the Swiss player signed a two-year contract with the Moscow team and started his work, with an option to extend the contract included in the agreement. At the press conference, Chelestini said, "I speak five languages. In just a few weeks, I realized how complex the Russian language is.

I have already learned several words. But rest assured, I will continue to learn it.

This is a great challenge for me, and I enjoy it." The first official match of the 2025/2026 season will take place on July 12. On that day, Fabio Chelestini's team will face the "Krasnodar" team in the Russian Super Cup.

This game will be held in the city of Kazan. It is worth noting that CSKA is participating in the Super Cup as the winner of the Russian Cup. This year's competition is of significant importance for the teams and is also a great opportunity for the new coach.

The team and its leader are striving to achieve good results in the new season.
