President of “Torpedo” Denis Maslov said “Championship”that the capital club will not pull the financial terms of the transfer of midfielder Denis Cheryshev.
– Should we wait for one of the stellar free agents in Torpedo – Dziuba, Zhirkov, Mamaev, Dzagoev or Cheryshev? You have to really look at things. Cheryshev, apart from everything else, has an excellent quality – he is from Nizhny Novgorod, ha!
But let’s be objective – such a transition is beyond our power. If only he agrees to play for free. Denis is a top-quality footballer, the top scorer of the World Cup at home, but we cannot afford him,” Maslov said.
Cheryshev made 20 appearances for Valencia last season, scoring one goal and making two assists. Previously, the 31-year-old Russian played for Villarreal, Real Madrid and Sevilla.
