“Rubin” must fight for the top three winners of the RPL “- Blagoy Georgiev

Rubin, with its capabilities, should fight for the top three in the RPL WORLD, Blagoy Georgiev, a former midfielder of Terek, Amkar, Rubin and Orenburg, told RB Sport.

In the 2022/23 season, Rubin took first place in the MELBET First League and returned to the RPL.

— Kazan is one of those cities that I love very much. For me, this is almost my hometown. I really wanted to stay there. But there were misunderstandings with management. So I left. But I will always talk about Kazan with love. This is the most sports city – there are many sports besides football.

I was very surprised by their relegation to the First Division. I think all of Russia was surprised. There is a good organization, good money, good conditions. Rubin, with its capabilities, must fight for the top three in the RPL. And this is the minimum. There are all conditions for this. I hope this reboot will help them,” the expert said.

Rubin is a two-time champion of Russia (2008, 2009), winner of the Russian Cup (2011/2012), two-time winner of the Russian Super Cup (2010, 2012) and winner of the Commonwealth Cup (2010).
