“Safonov is ripe for a move to a team that plays in European competition” – Chanov

Former CSKA Moscow goalkeeping coach Vyacheslav Chanov believes that Krasnodar goalkeeper Matvey Safonov is ready to move to a club participating in European cup tournaments.

Earlier, journalist Ivan Karpov said that Krasnodar could loan Safonov for the next season to a club playing in European competition.

– Safonov is ripe for a move to another team that plays in European competition. In addition, he already plays for the Russian national team and is considered the leading goalkeeper. In order to go further, you need to try yourself at a more serious level.

To fully understand Matvey, you need to see his game in European competitions. The Russian national team so far only participates in friendly matches, and the clubs are stewing in their own juice. I would like to see Safonov in Europe, this will be a step forward, – RB Sport quotes Chanov.

Safonov is a graduate of Krasnodar. The 24-year-old has made 26 appearances for the Bulls this season.
