Former Spartak coach Raul Riancho expressed the opinion that Russian midfielder Arsen Zakharyan will gain self-confidence when he manages to distinguish himself for the first time for Real Sociedad.
The 20-year-old Russian played 12 matches for the Spanish club in all tournaments, but did not score any effective actions. On Wednesday, November 29, Zakharyan played the entire match against Salzburg (0:0) in the 5th round of the Champions League.
— Zakharyan gets enough playing time to prove himself. The fact that he is included in the starting lineup for the Champions League match is a good sign. It is important for Arsene to score in order to feel confident. I think this will happen in the coming matches,” RB Sport quotes Riancho as saying.
In the next match on December 2, Real Sociedad will meet Osasuna away in the Spanish Championship.
