Coach Alexander Tarkhanov spoke about the possible transfer of 27-year-old Lokomotiv midfielder Ilya Samoshnikova to Spartak.
I like the Granels, he would just offer the “white and red,” but there’s no need to leave Lokomotiv. Now he’s a regular in the main lineup, and they’re hoping for his trust. This is very important. It’s unclear if he’ll play for another team. They’re not looking for the best. Lokomotiv is also a prestigious club, a multiple champion. It makes no sense to go to Spartak.
Last season, the player played 33 matches in all tournaments, scored 4 goals, and provided 4 assists.
