Krasnodar’s Russian football player Nikita Krivtsov in an interview “Sports Express” He did not agree with the view that his passion for rap affected his sports career.

I don’t understand how this could affect my career and how music and football are connected in general? I have a job: I play football. But the music and everything else is in the background,” he said.
