The coach of the Russian national team Nikolay Pisarev did not rule out that the national team would play friendly matches at the September training camp.
The International Football Federation (FIFA) and UEFA previously suspended Russian clubs and teams from participating in competitions under their auspices due to the situation in Ukraine.
– There is a chance that the Russian team will play in September. Negotiations are underway with other countries to hold a friendly match. With which countries? This is not what I do. It is worth turning to other bodies, the Secretary General. I am a coach, and my task is to look at the players for the training camp. Collection dates? September from FIFA, – Pisarev is quoted by RB Sport.
The Russian national team held its last training camp in March this year.
