Former goalkeeper of the Russian national team Ruslan Nigmatullin commented the speech Artem Dziuba in Turkey.
“The return of Dziuba to Zenit? Even hypothetically, such a development of events should not be considered. Artem’s history with the Zenit is closed. There are younger players than Dzyuba and their skill level is higher. It could be expected that he would not play in Turkey. Dzyuba passed physically. This is related to age. Artem is a powerful attacker and when such attackers lose speed, it is difficult for them to do anything. You have to train a lot, like Ibrahimovic does, and it takes a lot of desire. I don’t know if Dziuba has it. Of course it’s sad. I would like Artem to turn the tide. As practice shows, when Dziuba is on the bench, he does not seriously engage in work. Artem becomes toxic, so the situation in the team can get worse. “– said Nigmatullin.
