“The RFU understands what they are doing.  We had no guarantees from the Asian Confederation” – Khomukha

Former head coach of the Russian youth team Dmitry Khomukha supported the decision of the Russian Football Union (RFU) to refuse to move to the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) and remain in the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA).

At a meeting on Wednesday, the RFU Executive Committee almost unanimously decided to remain in UEFA.

— Probably, the leaders of the RFU understand what they are doing. Perhaps there are some agreements with UEFA that over time we will return to international games. We had no guarantees from the Asian Confederation. It is not a fact that Japan, Australia and South Korea will agree to play with us. No one will give such guarantees,” Euro-Futbol.Ru quotes Khomukha.

At the end of February 2022, FIFA and UEFA suspended Russian national teams and clubs from participating in international tournaments due to the situation in Ukraine.

Musaev revealed Krasnodar’s plans for winter training

Head coach of Krasnodar Murad Musaev shared the team’s plans for winter training:

The work ahead is hard. Six games are scheduled during the training camp (from 14 to 28 January). The training program doesn’t change much. Everyone knows more or less what we will do.

Ideally I would like to play against foreign teams, but so far one opponent is from Kazakhstan, the rest from Russia. Strong opponents, but I would like some variety.

A match with Zenit is scheduled, there is an agreement on the 120 minute format. This is an important match because we have a lot of guys who need to train and some who have returned from injury.

Koloskov called empty talk about the German boycott of World Cup 26 because of Greenland

The discussion about a possible boycott of the 2026 FIFA World Cup against the German national team in light of opinion polls has no basis in reality. This opinion was expressed by the honorary president of the Russian Football Federation (RFU) Vyacheslav Koloskov.

The Bild newspaper previously reported that almost half of Germans would support a boycott of the 2026 World Cup if Greenland joined. USA. According to a study by the INSA Institute, 47% of respondents support the idea of ​​a boycott, 35% are against it and another 18% find it difficult to answer.

“This is nonsense. Whatever they come up with. What do Greenland and the World Cup have to do with anything? This is just a poll,” Koloskov said. “Another thing is if the German Football Association officially said that it will not send its team, then it would make sense to talk about it. We have to keep in mind that this will never happen. It’s all empty talk.”

The 2026 World Cup will be held in USAMexico and Canada from June 11th to July 19th.

Trump has repeatedly stated the need for Greenland to join USA. Already during his first presidential term he proposed the purchase of the island and in March 2025 he expressed confidence that it could be annexed.

Greenland is part of Denmark as an autonomous territory. In 1951, Washington and Copenhagen, in addition to allied commitments BORN signed the Greenland Defense Treaty. According to him USA they took charge of defending the island from possible attacks.
