Former Krasnodar football player Maxim Demenko believes that Kurban Berdyev did not leave the post of head coach of Sochi for reasons of playing.
“This news shocked me. I think there is something in the relationship with the management. It is surprising to be fired in this way. Absolutely unfair decision regarding Berdyev. His arrival was highly anticipated in the team. Most likely, something happened above.
He leaves the club for reasons he did not play. He spent very little time as a coach. We don’t know all the subtleties but this is clearly not in terms of gameplay qualities. Something about management. I think everything will come out later,” Demenko says. “Euro-Football.Ru”.
Today it became known that Berdyev was expelled from FC Sochi. Berdyev’s appointment as head coach of Sochi was announced at the end of December 2022. Under his leadership, the team played five matches, with two wins in the national championship.
In Russia, the specialist is known for his work in Rostov and Rubin. Kazan led his team to the Russian Premier League (RPL) championship twice. Also, the Tatarstan club under his leadership managed to win the Russian Cup and the country’s Super Cup twice.
Previously at the Ministry of Sports of Tatarstan Kurban Berdyev spoke about his second return to Rubin.
