Urartu head coach Dmitry Gunko named the MIR Russian Premier League (RPL) coaches who impressed him in the first half of the season.

— Whose coaching work impressed you in the first part of the championship?

— I really liked Galaktionov’s work at Lokomotiv. Experts who write a lot about football did not expect such a result from Musaev. I liked how he re-entered the same river, changed himself and the attitude within the team. It was obvious. I’ll also highlight Stankovic’s work at the end of the championship. It is clear that the team is very motivated and harmonious. “Spartak” runs, doesn’t stop, shows very intense football. The match with Krasnodar at the end of the championship was very bright. The work of these coaches left an imprint on my memory,” RB Sport quotes Gunko as saying.

After 18 rounds, the leader of the RPL is Krasnodar with 39 points. Zenit scored the same number of points, but is inferior in additional indicators. Spartak is in third place (37).

football journalist Igor Tsyganyk He told the details of the long-standing transfer story regarding the possible transfer of Vyacheslav Kobin to Dnepr.

According to him, when Dnipro club had to choose between Artem Fedetsky and Vyacheslav Kobin, Kobin was the first choice to strengthen the squad.

Tsyganyk stated that the football player could really be transferred to Dnieper and noted that they made him an offer in the first place. According to the journalist, in the event of such a transfer, Kobin could even play in the 2015 Europa League final, but ultimately the transfer did not take place.

The journalist emphasized that the failure of the transition was not related to financial conditions. According to his information, salaries in Shakhtar and Dnepr were approximately the same. The reasons why the transfer did not take place lie on a different level, but the details of this situation are not reliably known.

According to Tsyganik, Dnepr considered Kobin as a priority option, but the transition was never implemented. Artem Fedetsky played for Dnepr from 2012 to 2016. In the 2014/15 Europa League final, Dnepr lost to the Spanish team Sevilla (2:3).
