Dmitry Bulykin, former forward of Lokomotiv Moscow and the Russian national team, said in an interview with socialbites.ca that Spartak head coach Guillermo Abascal will most likely coach the autumn part of the season in the Russian Premier League (RPL) until the end.
According to him, it does not seem possible for the red-white management to make hasty decisions about the 34-year-old Spanish specialist.
“There are many people who could replace Abascal, the question for the management here is: What do they want? I would like the person who replaces him to be a competent specialist. There are a lot of details in the Russian Championship – last fall with Abascal Spartak was one of the best, everyone around said that the team could force Zenit to fight for the title, and after the winter break when you just train . The management will probably consider Abascal in this regard. “Spartak” is expected to be at least in the top three, but it is unclear where it is at the moment. I think that Abascal will definitely be given time before the winter break, because for me, as a former football player and coach of category A, it would be interesting to watch the result and only then make a decision. Of course, if Spartak has a coach available, they can make changes, but I do not expect sudden moves from the club management,” Bulykin said.
Previously Dmitry Bulykin named A condition under which Spartak will fire Guillermo Abascal.
