Former Spartak footballer Alexander Mostovoy does not exclude that the defender of the Italian Sassuolo Rogerio can play in Spartak.

Why is this football player for Spartak?

– Sassuolo, in principle, is a good team. What is there to say? The new government, new views, need to be worked out somehow. A lot of money is made on this, that’s why.

– Wouldn’t it have been better to buy a defensive midfielder for this money?

– The question is debatable. From year to year they tell us the same thing: “We need to educate our players, create something”. Who didn’t say that. And then you look: if you need to achieve some result, they buy a foreigner. And a good example of this is Zenit, five years in a row the champion of our country. Whereby? Thanks to foreigners.

What to do? We are not to blame that foreigners are now stronger than ours. That’s what they buy. And if you look into it in detail: they took a guy from Cadiz, no one especially knows him. Bought for 8-9 million – and suddenly he will come and shoot? There is a defender here, but what if he is normal?

– Spartak does not take young players: Rogerio is 25 years old, Bongonda is 27.

– That’s what I was talking about. Where are your young players? But in our championship everyone can play – both at 27 and at 37. We have Noboa at 38 the best player. And he really is one of the best now.

This I am leading to the fact that Abaskal will not work this season – they will remove him. Others will come. And what do you think, will not take anyone? Of course they will. What is far to go? Example: Lokomotiv, the Germans fooled around for two and a half years. Whomever they invited, bought, sold. Now another coaching staff has come, another leadership. And they also buy, sell, buy, sell. In “Spartak” it was from year to year and will be, – said Mostovoy to Metaratings.ru.

Rogerio is 25 years old. The Brazilian moved to Sassuolo from Juventus in 2019. In the 2022/23 season, he made 37 appearances for Sassuolo and provided four assists. In total, he has 148 matches in Serie A, 2 goals and 7 assists.

INFANTINO: “If there was no FIFA, there would be no football in 150 countries of the world”

FIFA President Gianni Infantino He commented on World Cup ticket prices, saying they reflected “absolutely insane” demand for next summer’s tournament:

“We have six to seven million tickets and in 15 days we received 150 million ticket requests. So every day we have 10 million requests. This shows how strong the World Cup is.”

FIFA has sold just 44 million tickets in almost 100 years of the World Cup. So we were able to sell tickets for the 300th anniversary of the World Cup in two weeks. Just imagine. “This is absolutely crazy.”

Infantino also noted that funds from ticket sales would be reinvested into world football, but did not specify a specific amount:

“The important thing is that the revenue from this goes back into football around the world. If it weren’t for FIFA, there would be no football in 150 countries of the world. Football exists thanks to the revenues we get from the World Cup, and we reinvest that into football around the world.”

Previously, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer called on FIFA to further reduce 2026 World Cup ticket prices.
