“None of the Fiorentina players understood why Sasha didn’t play” – massage therapist Kokorina

Masseur Sergei Kolesnikov, who works with Aris striker Alexander Kokorin, spoke about the situation of the Russian at Fiorentina.

– The fact that Sasha did not play at Fiorentina, and now he comes out and scores for Aris, has nothing to do with injuries. They didn’t put it on in Florence, that was it. A third or fourth coach came to Fiorentina, and Sasha was not given the opportunity to play. Kokorin was in perfect order. He trained hard, and the leadership of the violets was pleased with his dedication in training and the attitude of a football player to his work.

If someone doubted the form of Kokorin in Italy, then watch his last game for Fiorentina against Napoli. He went out for ten minutes, and his club won. If you look at how he played those ten minutes, everything will become clear. None of the Fiorentina players understood why Sasha did not play. Saponara said that it was convenient for him to play with Kokorin. The coach said “bravo” in training, but did not let him out on the field.

Vincenzo Italiano, I think, will not let Alexander Kokorin play if the player returns to Florence. The decision must be made by Sasha himself: whether he should return to Italy or not. Now he feels comfortable in Aris. This is a good team, and most importantly, they have an excellent attitude towards the player himself. Everything suits Kokorin in Cyprus, Sport24 quotes Kolesnikov.
