Former striker of the Russian national team Dmitry Bulykin talked about the possible transition of Moscow Lokomotiv midfielder Dmitry Barinov to Turkey.
“Türkiye is different, the Italian championship is different. It’s hard to leave today. It is better for him to sign with Lokomotiv and form a new team this season.
I think there is no point in going to Turkey. I would remain the leader of Lokomotiv and be a member of next season. An interesting team is being formed.
He is trusted in Russia, here he will be one of the leaders. There is no point in moving to Turkey if there is no difference in wages, but a long-term contract with Lokomotiv is necessary, ”says Bulykin “Euro-Football.Ru”.
The media previously reported that Lokomotiv is ready to consider offers to sell Barinov for 15 million euros, but as it was later learned, Turkish Beşiktaş offered only 1.5 million. This season, the football player made 28 appearances, scoring two goals and providing three assists. .
Lokomotiv, 23 weeks behind in the Russian Premier League (RPL), is in the 10th place with 28 points.
Barinov is a graduate of the “railway”. Since 2019, he was called up to the Russian national team. In 2021, he was the team captain in the 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifying match against Cyprus (2-0).
Previously, Gazprom will help Beşiktaş buys Barinov from Lokomotiv.
