Samara “Wings of the Soviets” Dutch football player Glenn Bale said that he hopes Russian teams will return to European cups next season. He mentioned this in an interview RIA News.
For me, playing in European cups is not that important. I hope that Russia will return to Europe as soon as possible. Currently “Wings” is in third place, if we continue to play like this we will go to European cups. “Hopefully next year everything will be over and we will play in the Europa League or the Conference League,” Bale said.
The International Football Federation (FIFA) and the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) have decided to suspend the participation of the Russian national team and all Russian clubs in all competitions controlled by these organizations in the spring of 2022.
Bale transferred to Krylia Sovetov in 2021. The contract with the Samara club runs until the summer of 2025. In the current season of the Russian Premier League (RPL), the defender appeared in seven matches, in which he scored one goal and one assist.
