“Working at the club gives him the opportunity to follow potential candidates for the national team. The national team has now stabilized and is showing quite good results in the last matches,” Gazzaev said.

In July 2021, Rostov’s head coach Valery Karpin led the Russian national team. He initially planned to combine studies with the national team and the club, but in early August he announced that he decided to focus on the national team, after which he left Rostov. After his suspension from the Russian national team, he again began to combine the two positions.
In the spring of 2022, the International Football Federation and the Union of European Football Associations decided to suspend the participation of the Russian national team and all Russian clubs in all competitions controlled by these organizations.
