Former CSKA striker Valeriy Masalitin emphasized in an interview with “Evro-Futbol.ru” that the main problem of the "red-blues" team before the start of the 2025/2026 season is the lack of a big and strong central striker. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
According to him, there is currently no central striker in CSKA who can fight with strength and hold the ball like Cordoba. Masalitin mentioned that none of the forwards stood out in the match against "Krasnodar," but the team fought hard and tried to fulfill their responsibilities.
He pointed out that the team is in such a situation at the moment. CSKA started the season with a 1:0 victory against "Krasnodar" in the Russia Super Cup match.
In the first round of the Russian championship, the "red-blues" will face the "Orenburg" team away on Monday, July 21. This match is being awaited with great attention.
