The Torpedo club has been removed from the Russian Premier League. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
The Disciplinary Commission of the Russian Football Union made this decision due to the Moscow club's attempts to organize fixed matches. After this process, the Torpedo club retained the right to participate in the Pari League, meaning the punishment imposed on the club was not as severe as expected.
Although the Disciplinary Commission acted within the framework of the regulations of the Russian Football Union, Torpedo was given the opportunity to participate in other professional competitions. This was reported by a source from "Match TV".
On Friday, a meeting of the Executive Committee of the Russian Football Union will take place. The issue of who will take Torpedo's place will be discussed.
Orenburg and Ural clubs are being considered as candidates for the vacant spot in the Russian Premier League. This decision will further clarify the situation in the top division of Russian football and determine the lineup for the new season.
