Vladimir Ponomarev, former defender of CSKA Moscow and the USSR national team, said in an interview with socialbites.ca that a deliberate detention operation may have been carried out at Dubai airport against the Dutch forward of the capital Spartak Quincy Promes.
In his opinion, Promes could simply have been “abandoned”.
“The devil knows, maybe our people will intervene somehow; ambassador, consul etc. This is a serious matter, who leaked it? If he returns to Russia, they will make allegations against us: “How can he play for you if there is a court decision against him? Why don’t you give it back?” “Even if we do not have any agreement with the Netherlands, if he is allowed to play and we do not take any measures against him, it will still be an international scandal,” Ponomarev said.
Due to his arrest, Promes was unable to fly to Moscow with the team and was scheduled to play against Zenit in St. Petersburg on Saturday, March 2. He will definitely miss the match in St. Petersburg. Zenit-Spartak match will be played at Gazprom Arena stadium. The starting whistle will blow at 19:30 Moscow time.
