Valery Karpin, head coach of the Russian national football team, believes that under the current conditions it makes no sense to call experienced players to the national team, for example, Dynamo Moscow forward Fedor Smolov.
— Last year we saw a lot of players who made their debut in the national team. Will you call all the strongest for the next matches? Or will you try new combinations again, new guys?
– If everything remains as it is, and I suspect that everything will remain so at least until March, then we will continue the same line, that is, prepare with an eye to the future. Well, what’s the point? Let’s imagine that, for example, at that time Fedor Smolov will be our best striker. Why should I call him? Meet? Or so that he scores two goals against Uzbekistan or Tajikistan, and everyone applauds Feda? What’s next from this?
Therefore, if nothing changes, I think we should look, bet on those guys who will be able to help the national team in the near future, ”Match TV quotes Karpin.
Russian clubs and teams have been suspended from participation in international tournaments since March last year due to the situation in Ukraine. The Russian national team has since played three friendly matches against the teams of Kyrgyzstan (2:1), Tajikistan (0:0) and Uzbekistan (0:0).
The Executive Committee of the Russian Football Union (RFU) at the end of December postponed the decision on a possible transition to the Asian Football Confederation (AFC).

Captain of Crystal Palace Marco Guehi set to join Liverpool at the end of the season. The England international’s contract expires in June and there are no plans to renew it.
Liverpool had already made a bid of £35 million in the last window, but the Londoners canceled the deal just hours before the transfer window closed. Sky Sports reports that Guehi remains interested in a move to Anfield and that a “gentleman’s agreement” has been reached between the two parties for the move to take place in the summer.
However, the situation could still change if Palace decide to cash in during the January transfer window. In addition to Liverpool, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich are also interested in Guehi, who will make an offer next month.
