Spertsyan is the one who increased the most in price.

Spertsyan replaces Zakharyan

Previously, the main Russian talent who was among the most expensive players in the Premier League was Dynamo midfielder Arsen Zakharyan. He was finally promoted in the summer and is now waiting for a chance at Real Sociedad. A RPL it was necessary for a new talent to take over. Now it’s Eduard Spertsyan – yes, he is Armenian, but graduated from Krasnodar. Now €2 million has been added to his estimated transfer fee.

At the same time, the midfielder has been in the first echelon of the stars of the championship for a long time. The young artist is extremely stable and therefore maintains his mark, regardless of changes on the coaches’ deck. Under Ivic, the southerners became a more pragmatic team, the emphasis shifted to speed and athleticism in the fight for the ball – and at first Eduard felt uncomfortable in the new structure. But at first he did not lose his place – and in the first 4 rounds of the new season he scored 3 goals and gave 2 assists.

Rebirth of Cassierra

The example of the Colombian striker shows how difficult it is sometimes to move from a modest club to a Russian giant. Zenit is the hegemon RPL, who needed a new striker. And despite the fact that Mateo Semak trusted more, the player spent the entire previous season badly.

But Cassierra still adapted to the new conditions and in the new championship he is tearing himself up, leading the scorers table. 9 games, 8 goals and a fee of 6 million euros are a good start to his rehabilitation.

If the Colombian now continues in the same spirit, by the end of the season he will be able to exceed the price of 10 million and at the same time attract the attention of some European clubs.

The formation of Tiknizyan, Saltykov and Faizullaev

Nair is the most experienced among these three. Managed to pass the academy CSKA, examined Avangard Kursk and then moved to Lokomotiv. A confluence of several factors led to the strong takeoff. The left back is excellent in attack, but unreliable in defence. At the same time, this set of qualities made it possible to find a symbiosis with the young winger Pinyaev. Upon leaving, Tiknizyan gave a productive end to last season and the same start to the current one. A goal against Rubin, a brace against Fakelu, a goal and an assist in the match against Zenit. It is important to understand that the consequence of such a specific role is that Nair is not suitable for everyone, but for Loko he is an ideal winger.

Saltykov and Faizullaev are young talents who have only appeared at the Premier League level this season. Nikita, after the youth sector of Chertanovo and the youth teams of Krylya, began his rise from the minor leagues. There was Zvezda from St. Petersburg, then Tolyatti Akron: under the leadership of Evgeniy Kaleshin, the team shone in the Cup, and the same 19-year-old winger returned to the Wings and was already fighting for the starting position. He won the competition and in 9 championship matches he scored 4 goals and gave 2 assists.

As for Abbosbeck, the 20-year-old insider spontaneously joined the team: initially he sat on the bench, but Fedotov needed at least some kind of rotation. He fascinated the fans in 3 rounds: he assisted in one of the goals for Krylia and scored against Rostov. Now he is already a player in the starting lineup. And he must be evaluated accordingly.

Garre is starting to be appreciated

The 23-year-old Argentine has a huge impact on the Wings’ offensive game. Apparently he is a very talented winger who also looks great in midfield.

And it is important that after the message about Benjamin’s desire to change teams the story didn’t develop. In last year’s Wings it would have been cramped: the team did not solve serious problems and rather tried not to fall into the play-off zone.

Now Samara is in the top 3 – and this is one more topic in negotiations with the winger.

Many Krasnodar residents on top

List of the most expensive players RPL perfectly integrates the balance of power in the championship: the majority are Zenit players. There are four of them in the top 5 – but if a year earlier in the company of Wendel, Claudinho, Douglas Santos and Barrios there was also Malcom, now he is gone, and Krasnodar goalkeeper Matvey Safonov entered the top five.

In total, in the top ten there are 3 representatives of the south: goalkeeper Eduard Spertsyan and John Cordoba. Now the “bulls” look extremely confident and are sweeping away their rivals, which means that with the next price update the current leaders may rise higher, plus some newcomers will be added.

Surprisingly, there are a couple of football players at the top CSKA – “CSKA” has serious personnel problems, but Fedor Chalov and Ivan Oblyakov keep the team afloat. And they have a value of 10 million euros or more.

Antitop captured Spartak and Zenit

Another indicator that illustrates the situation is the evaluation of the players who have lost the most in value. Surprisingly, the largest representation in the anti-theme are the current champions together with Spartak. The “red-whites” have lost ground under their feet: no playing structure can be seen anymore. Moreover, the de jure leaders have become de facto reserve players: Dzhikia and Medina for sure. Georgy lost motivation long ago, having no competitors. And this led to the fact that only Srdjan Babic, who arrived, easily took his place at the start. As a result, minus 1 million euros from the cost (now 6.5 million). Jesus Medina’s price also dropped by 1 million, to 6 million euros. But Quincy Promes is first by a margin. And his position is shocking: even in such a “Spartak” he remains a leader, sometimes demonstrating the depth of the class gap between him and others.

As for Zenit, Barrios, Isidore and Do Queiroz have significantly lowered their prices. For the latter it is also a question of game practice. The former simply started making mistakes more often. Moreover, there is a decline at the team level: the St. Petersburg team began to lose points much more often.
