Kazan “Rubin” football player Oleg Ivanov named Moscow “Dinamo” Uruguayan midfielder Diego Laxalt the best player of the first half of the Russian Premier League (RPL) 2023/24 season. He shared his opinion with him “Sports Express”.
“In my opinion, Laxalt was the best player of the first half of the season. We can only applaud Marcel Licka, who unexpectedly found a new position for the Uruguayan and blossomed.
Now at Dynamo the entire game runs through Laxalt. By concretizing the support zone, it created a balance between defense and attack. Previously, these were called “breakwaters”. Tough, agile, durable. He is also a technical man, he sees the field, he does not catch the ball,” Ivanov wrote.
This season, Laxalt played in 17 matches in all tournaments for the blue-whites and made 4 assists in these matches.
After the first part of the season in the RPL, Dinamo took third place in the standings, collecting 32 points. The Russian Championship has gone into winter break and will resume only in March, the 19th round starts on the 3rd. Lichki’s team will play its match against Lokomotiv Moscow.
Former coach of the Spanish national team appreciated His appointment to foreign club RPL.
