The Russian national team’s coaching staff has decided to release goalkeeper PSG Matvey Safonova from the contract. This was reported to “Match TV” by national team goalkeeping coach Vitaly Kafanov.
Safonov is expected to be at the club’s location on the 9th, so Matvey will not be going to the match with Belarus. Even if it weren’t for this urgent departure, he needs at least two weeks of rest after such a difficult season. Let him rest for at least three days. We released him after consulting with Valery Georgievich Karpin, the medical staff, and the leadership.
