Forward Anton Zabolotniy has transferred to the "Spartak" club, which was officially announced on the first day of July. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
The 34-year-old footballer explained during the conversation what his role in the new team would be. According to Zabolotniy, as an experienced player, he should be a leader within the team, help young players by setting an example, lead the team forward, and inspire his teammates with a positive attitude.
He spoke about this in an interview with the "Spartak" press service. Before moving to "Spartak," Anton Zabolotniy played for the "Khimki" team. The club in the Moscow region ceased operations due to financial difficulties and was unable to obtain the necessary license. In the first round of the Premier League, "Spartak" will host the "Dinamo" team from Makhachkala at their home ground.
This match will be one of the team's first tests in the new season. Anton Zabolotniy and his new team are striving to show a good result in front of the fans.
