Anzor Gargaev, a representative of Fatih Karagyumryuk midfielder Magomed Ozdoev, told RB Sport that his client refused to move to the club from Saudi Arabia for the sake of his family.
According to media reports, in the summer Ozdoev received official offers from two Saudi clubs: Al-Ittifaq and Damak.
Why did Magomed turn down an offer from a club from Saudi Arabia in the summer?
– Ozdoev has three children. He flew to see the city, the stadium. It was not Riyadh. It turned out that there is no international school in this city. And I wanted my children and wife to be there. In general, not the most comfortable conditions for a family.
Was it a good deal financially?
– They offered more than in Zenith. I was even surprised. There they gave serious money, not everyone could refuse. In general, I told him then that for the sake of such money you can endure. As the saying goes, strike while the iron is hot. But Magomed confidently made a decision – he gave priority to the family. And the championship in Turkey is stronger. And he can go to Saudi Arabia at the age of 35.
Do you think he’ll be okay at that age?
– Why not? He is a regime man, he trains hard. So, up to 38 years old can safely play.
Ozdoev moved to the Turkish club last summer. Since then, he has made 20 appearances for the team and scored three goals.

Roma’s Ukrainian striker Artem Dovbik According to Il Tempo, he will have to undergo surgery.
It turned out that the injury the 28-year-old striker received in the match against Lecce in the 19th round of the Italian Serie A was more serious than expected. After new tests, Roma and the player decided to undergo surgery to remove the musculotendinous lesion on the left thigh.
Therefore, Dovbik will probably not be able to help the Ukrainian national team in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. The striker is unlikely to recover for the match against the Swedish national team on March 26.
Dovbik was injured in the match between Lecce and Roma in the 19th round of Serie A on January 6. Artem scored in the 71st minute, setting the final score of the match (2:0), and left the field due to injury in the 86th minute.

Former coach of the Ukrainian national team Jozsef Szabo Meta.ua has exclusively chosen the version of the three best Ukrainian football players of this season for its website.
“In the first row, Ilya Zabarny is almost out of the competition,” Sabo said. – As far as I remember, there has been no regression in the game yet. Yes, the defender had unimpressive tackles, but these were isolated cases. But he’s only 23 years old. The contract with Paris Saint-Germain shows that this football player is currently one of the best in Europe. And do not forget that at that age he played 55 matches for the Ukrainian national team.
I will give second place to Ruslan Malinovsky, who seems to have found a second youth after being injured. This guy’s head is clear, making great passes is not difficult for a midfielder. Largely thanks to Malinovsky’s effective play, the Ukrainian national team managed to qualify for the play-offs in the 2026 World Cup qualifying tournament.
The third will be Everton’s left back Vitaly Mikolenko. He is a consistent starter for his team. And no matter what position the team is in, the English league is still the strongest league in Europe. He is an irreplaceable football player in the national team.
