“I think that Konate will soon have a Russian passport” – agent

Agent Dmitry Selyuk, representing the interests of Akhmat forward Mohamed Konate, said that the footballer would soon receive a Russian passport.

Konate, 25, has played 20 games for Grozny this season, scoring one goal and providing one assist.

– If there is a Russian passport, then a Russian citizen does not have the right to terminate the contract or suspend it. Therefore, for clubs, of course, it is better for a foreigner to be a Russian. But it’s strange to me that the conditional Garre is going to get a passport. After all, this happens after you have lived in the country for five years. And he just signed the contract. It’s a violation! Citizenship does not just need to be distributed to just anyone, you need to follow certain procedures.

But God himself ordered my Konata to get a passport. He has a Russian wife, a child too. He speaks Russian and has been living here for more than five years. He does not yet have a Russian passport, but I think he will soon.

And these? They don’t speak Russian at all. How do they even get passports? They get passports, they get big money, but they play worse and worse. Dynamo and CSKA have already lost,” Metaratings.ru quotes Selyuk.
