Lokomotiv Moscow midfielder Dmitry Barinov spoke about striker Artem Dziub, who joined the club as a free agent in February 2023.
According to him, the 34-year-old striker took over the leadership position immediately after his arrival.
“I am the captain of Lokomotiv. Artem came, he’s the leader of the locker room. I help him, he helps me with something. And we had no problems in the Euro when we were in the national team, and it’s the same now.
And the media story around Artyom is his story, I’m not interested in that. We do only one thing – we help our club”, – quotes Barinov “Match TV”.
Recall that in the away game against Rostov of the 18th round of the Russian Premier League (RPL), Dziuba scored a hat-trick and brought his team the victory (3: 1).
After this success, the wards of Mikhail Galaktionov moved up to 13th place with 16 points.
