Secretary General of the Russian Football Union (RFU) Maxim Mitrofanov said that a friendly match between the national teams of Russia and Brazil in March 2024 is unlikely, reports »Sports Express”.
“For now, the Russia-Brazil match is not on the agenda. It doesn’t seem possible next March break. Our negotiations with Latin American countries continue. “We want to play with the strongest teams possible,” Mitrofanov said.
In the spring of 2022, the International Federation of Football Associations (FIFA) and the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) decided to suspend the participation of the Russian national team and all Russian clubs in all competitions controlled by these organizations.
Russian clubs have not taken part in European competitions since February 2022, and the Russian national team last played in the 2022 World Cup qualifiers.
The Russian national team missed the Euro 2024 qualifiers, which will be held in Germany in the summer. The current winner of the European Championship is Italy.
Former coach of Spartak Oleg Romantsev saidWhether Russian football should go to Asia.
