Former Moscow Lokomotiv striker Dmitry Sychev expressed confidence that Valery Karpin, head coach of the Russian national football team, will never again call Artem Dziuba to the national team.
“I think there will be no more Dziuba in the national team. Meaningless. What’s the point of declaring a new generation if Valery Georgievich calls 35-year-old football players? The history of Dzyuba and the Russian team is over,” says Sychev. sports24.
Karpin added five forwards to the expanded roster: CSKA’s Fedor Chalov, Spartak’s Alexander Sobolev, Krylya Sovetov’s Vladimir Pisarsky, Dynamo’s Konstantin Tyukavin and Rostov’s Nikolai Komlichenko.
