Former sports director of St. Petersburg "Zenit" Igor Korneyev commented on the transfer of striker Nikolay Komlichenko, who did not move to "Spartak". This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
According to him, the player preferred to move to "Lokomotiv". Korneyev emphasized that Komlichenko would not have suited "Spartak's" style of play.
He stated that Sergeyev would be a better fit for "Spartak" and highlighted that Komlichenko would not have strengthened the team. The publication "Sport-Express" presented these opinions.
It is worth noting that "Spartak" signed a contract with 34-year-old Anton Zabolotniy for the central striker position. He previously played for the "Khimki" team in the Moscow region.
Last season, in the Russian Premier League, Zabolotniy played in 29 matches, scoring 6 goals and providing 5 assists. This transfer is seen as a step aimed at strengthening "Spartak's" attacking line.
The team's management highly values the new player's experience and effectiveness in the game. Komlichenko's move to "Lokomotiv" was an unexpected situation for "Spartak".
Overall, teams are actively working to strengthen their squads.
