Glenn Bale says he’s not thinking about getting Russian citizenship

The Dutch defender of Krylia Sovetov Glenn Bale told RB Sport that he is not currently considering the possibility of obtaining Russian citizenship.

— You run your telegram channel in Russian. How hard is it?

— Blogging in Russian is quite difficult for me, but it is very interesting for me. Sometimes, of course, I use a translator on my phone or with the help of friends. Evgeny Frolov helps me a little, he has excellent English. But mostly I try to do everything myself, I like it.

– Many might think that you are actively learning Russian because you are going to get Russian citizenship.

No, it’s not related. Do I want to get a Russian passport? It’s too early to talk about it yet. As far as I know, for this I need to play in Russia for 5 years. Now I don’t think about obtaining Russian citizenship. No one offered me to make a passport, there was nothing like that.

Bale, 27, joined Wings of the Soviets in 2021. This season he has made 25 appearances in all competitions, scoring 1 goal and providing 2 assists.

    Ivlev said that Dinamo is ready to change the limit for foreign players

    Dynamo Moscow is ready to change the limit for foreign players in the Russian football championship. The president of the Dynamo board of directors said this in an interview. Alexander Ivlev.

    Ministry of Sports RF proposes to tighten the limit for foreign players by 2028 according to the “10 foreign players in the application, 5 in the field” scheme.

    “I can say that Dynamo is ready for these changes. We have wonderful young people who have grown up in the club. And a good core of players at the level of the Russian national team. I think most teams RPL (Mir – Russian Premier League – known source) will be ready for this too. We hope that this will have a positive effect on the quality of play of Russian players,” Ivlev said.

    “I believe that foreign footballers have already become part of the ecosystem of Russian football. Those sparks of Latin American and African football that we see performed by the masters in our league, of course, give an additional effect in terms of beauty of football, artistry and all this is also passed on to our players. Therefore, we absolutely cannot refuse these opportunities,” Ivlev added.

    According to the current limit, clubs RPL can include 13 foreign players in the application and release 8 foreign players on the pitch. In September, the Russian Football Federation said the current limit allowed young players’ playing time to be increased to 18% for the first time.
