The "Torpedo" club has been excluded from the league by the Russian Premier League and fined five million rubles. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
The club's co-owner Leonid Sobolev has been banned from football activities for five years. Sobolev's legal representative Alexander Dobrovinskiy expressed his opinion on this decision.
According to him, this situation is incorrect, but sometimes such steps are taken in football for the interests of the "Orenburg" club. The lawyer emphasized that Sobolev will be informed about possible further actions.
Sobolev may appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport or dissolve the "Torpedo" club. It is still unclear who will take the place of "Torpedo."
Perhaps the "Orenburg" club, which has directly dropped from the league, may take its place. This situation will bring significant changes to the Russian Premier League.
The football community and officials are closely monitoring this issue.
