“For Chalov to go abroad, he needs guarantees that he will play” – Nepomniachtchi

Russian coach Valery Nepomniachtchi spoke about the possible transfer of CSKA forward Fedor Chalov to a foreign championship, and also spoke about the features of the Turkish championship, where the Russian can continue his career.

The media previously reported that the Turkish Trabzonspor became interested in the 25-year-old Russian, which included the forward in the list of transfer targets and began working on the transfer, but there are “many applicants from Europe” for the player.

— Does Chalov need to go abroad now? I never answer these questions. This is a personal matter for each person. The only thing is, if Fedor is going to go somewhere, then he needs to play there. But sitting on the bench or going on loan is not the case. Also, the player needs to get to “his” coach, to “his” team, only then can he count on luck. Therefore, Chalov himself needs to think here.

Clubs from Turkey are interested in Chalov, what can you say about this championship? In terms of scandals, the Turkish league is far superior to our championship. This is a unique country with the same mentality. Playing in Turkey is interesting, but not easy. I also doubt that the Turkish Super League is superior to the RPL in terms of quality of play,” Nepomnyashchiy told Metaratings.ru.

This season, Chalov took part in 26 matches for the “red-blues”, scored 11 goals and made three assists. His contract with CSKA runs until December 31, 2024.
