The central defender of the Uzbekistan national team, Abduqodir Husanov, is now also conquering English football and increasingly introducing himself to English fans and specialists successfully.
In the coming days, our compatriot, who will turn 21, joined the ranks of the main players of "Manchester City," and analysts note that this Uzbek player will take the lead in the team's defense in the near future.
Abduqodir Husanov will need to learn English quickly to integrate deeper into the team. The head coach, Xosep Guardiola, also mentioned that the Uzbek footballer's communication circle is limited.
- All the players who joined our squad in January have been showing themselves well in training.
Abduqodir Husanov participated in matches against teams like "Chelsi," "Leyton Orient," "Newcastle," "Real," and "Liverpool" in a short period. Considering where this player comes from, he has not played in such a tight schedule before.
Another point is that Husanov still cannot speak English fluently, which is causing a lack of communication with those around him.
However, it must be acknowledged that his contribution to the game is immense.
Although Umar Marmush and Niko Gonzales have played slightly less, they are performing very well. We are satisfied with the impact these three players are having on our team's game. And of course, in due time, Vitor Reis will also reach a good level and gain game experience, - said "Manchester City" head coach Xosep Guardiola.
Meanwhile, the number of players in various leagues who admire Abduqodir Husanov's career is increasing. In particular, central defender Erving Botaka-Yoboma, originally from Congo and playing for Russia's "Arsenal," did not hide that he dreams of conquering European football like the Uzbek player.
- European championships will also be different. For example, if we take Belgium, I would go to this championship. My feelings indicate that this league suits me and I would enjoy it. Because many players are taken from such leagues to major championships.
For instance, let's take Abduqodir Husanov: he recently played in the not-so-strong Belarus championship from the Russian first league. Then he moved to France's "Lans." Now he is at "Manchester City"!
Anything can happen. Everyone has their own destiny; you just need to choose the right path for development, - said Erving Botaka-Yoboma.
It is worth noting that Abduqodir Husanov, who started his professional football career in 2022, became a player at the level of "Manchester City," one of the strongest clubs in the world, in a short time – just two and a half years. Initially, he defended the honor of "Energetik-BGU" in the Belarus championship for a year and then played for "Lans" for one and a half seasons.
"Manchester City" spent 50 million euros, including bonuses, to acquire the Uzbek footballer. This became the largest transfer in the history of Uzbekistan football and during the activity of the "Lans" club, and it was recorded as a record.
