Akhmat newcomer Hamid Agalarov believes that he should spend another good season in the MIR RPL before leaving for Europe.
– Transfer rumors around you are the main saga of this summer in Russian football. Why in the end “Akhmat”?
– The main factor is Andrey Viktorovich (Talalaev)’s interest in me. We called him up more than once, he outlined the game of Akhmat, the philosophy of the team, told how he sees me in the team. It inspired and hooked me,” Sport24 quoted Agalarov as saying.
– And how does Talalaev see you?
– The tip of the attack – the central forward. I followed Akhmat last season. They have a lot of vertical attacks, pressure and counterattacks. This is what I like and fit. So everything is clear.
What advice did your father give you?
– He supported my decision to move to Akhmat, like the whole family. Dad also liked the perseverance of Talalaev and the leaders of the club. This was key. Another important factor in my transition is the similarity of the mentality of the peoples of Chechnya and Dagestan. Due to this, my adaptation to Akhmat will be faster.
– Literally two days before your transfer to Akhmat, an option suddenly arose with the Portuguese Maritimo.
– This option was, we discussed it with Shamil Kamilovich (Gazizov, the general director of Ufa). But in the end, I decided that going abroad now is not exactly what I need. At the top level in the RPL, I played only one season. I’m ready for Europe, but I need at least another season in Russia.
In the first round of the MIR RPL, Akhmat played a draw at home with Spartak (1: 1). Agalarov appeared on the field in the 56th minute of the meeting and was not marked by effective actions.

Former coach of Dynamo Kiev Alexander Showkovsky He should have been sacked in August after a poor performance in the Champions League qualifiers.
The blue-whites, who lost twice to Cypriot Paphos in the 3rd round of the European Cup (0:1 and 0:2), were relegated to the Europa League and then promoted to the Conference League.
“I know that Dinamo management believes that a change of coach could and should be made in the summer, after they lost to Paphos in the Champions League qualifiers.
Then an opportunity arose. But the necessary candidate was not available,” the source said.
Due to the lack of alternatives, the president of the Kiev club decided to leave Shovkovsky as head coach, but in November the Ukrainian specialist was nevertheless fired and left Dynamo.

Former Real Madrid midfielder Toni Kroos He talked about his interaction with Brazilian striker Vinicius Junior and other representatives of Brazil within the scope of the “royal club”.
“The Brazilians aroused my sympathy even as a child. While playing for Real Madrid, I developed excellent relationships with Vinicius, Casemiro and Militao.
It is very easy to find a common language with these guys: they know how to enjoy life, and their mentality is significantly different from that of the Germans.
Casemiro and Vinicius and I understood each other perfectly on the field and developed a unique football bond with Vini.
We communicated warmly in daily life. I believe that if there is no contact between players off the field, it is extremely difficult to achieve harmony in the game.
I used Vini’s high-speed bursts effectively and he masterfully directed my passes,” AS Kroos reports.
Let’s remember that Kroos defended the jersey of Real Madrid from 2014 to 2024. During this decade the German midfielder won the Champions League five times.
