Former Lokomotiv head coach Yuri Syomin commented on the return of the Orenburg club to the Russian Premier League. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
He emphasized that this decision has already been made and the situation should be accepted as such. The Orenburg team is preparing for the season.
Their main goal was to return to the Premier League, and now how they prepare depends on them. At the end of the last season, the Orenburg team finished in 15th place in the competition table and was relegated from the league.
However, the Russian Football Union (RFS) decided to return the team to the Premier League. This spot will be vacated by the Torpedo club, as they were expelled from the competition for attempting to arrange match-fixing.
Thus, the Orenburg team will participate in the top league in the new season and aims to showcase their potential.
