“It may come to the point of not being able to find a job in sports in Russia. I didn’t do drugs, I didn’t break the law, I didn’t steal anything – why am I not allowed to work here? I’ve been out of payment many times because someone, somewhere, was trying to play some games. This is so annoying.

Regardless, I’m still in Russia, my life is in Russia. I plan to stay in Russia. I’ll just say that I understand people who leave sometimes,” Wilde said.
