Moscow Region Governor Andrey Vorobyov said the region does not plan to invest in professional sports.
Professional clubs are a private business, and budget funding has already been passed on. Marketing is underway: sponsors and bookmakers are involved, television revenues, and attendance are increasing. If Hymik has a sponsor, we will be happy.
Khimki Arena is a municipal stadium, and we have already created the most favorable rental conditions. But we will not allocate budget funds to professional football, hockey, or basketball.
On June 18, the Khimki Football Club announced the suspension of its activities. There are also problems at another professional sports club in the region, Vityaza Hockey.
