Kanchelskis: The captain should be chosen by the team members

A famous former football player Andrey Kanchelskis expressed his opinion on the selection of captains in teams. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

The goalkeeper of Moscow's "Dinamo," Andrey Lunyov, expressed confusion over the captain's armband being given to Bitello, who arrived late to the training camps. According to Kanchelskis, in many countries around the world, the captain is chosen by the team members, not the coach.

The coaching staff can only provide advice. The player who receives the most votes becomes the captain.

Last season, the captain of the "Dinamo" team was Paraguayan defender Fabian Balbuena. He left the team at the end of the season.

In the new season, "Dinamo" will play its opening match in the Russian Premier League. On July 18, Friday, Valery Karpin's team will host "Baltika."

This game will be given great attention as the first match of the new season. Who is chosen for the captaincy within the team will affect the team's morale and success in the game.

Therefore, it is important for the team members to agree and unanimously choose the captain. Coaches can provide their recommendations and assist the team.
