Akhmat football club president Magomed Daudov criticized the statement of the Union of European Football Federations (UEFA) on the inclusion of Crimean clubs in the Russian Football Union (RFU).
“An absolutely insane statement of an organization that still dares to dictate something after kicking Russian football out of its association. FIFA, UEFA and other international sports organizations have mixed sport with politics, depriving Russian athletes of the opportunity to compete in international tournaments. And after all that, are we supposed to listen to their advice? to hell! Enough!”, — quotes Daudov’s words Sports24.
He also noted that it is necessary to help Crimean clubs quickly join Russian football.
Now the teams of Crimea and Sevastopol play in the championship of the Crimean Football Union Premier League. A similar question arose in Abkhazia. Representatives of one of the local clubs were to play in the Second Division next season. The Ministry of Sports plans to create a single league for the football teams of the Crimea, DPR and LPR.
Recall that on May 2, the decision of UEFA to exclude the Russian national team from the League of Nations and Russian clubs from European competitions in the 2022/23 season became known.
Formerly Vyacheslav Koloskov Called to meet with UEFA on the acceptance of Crimean clubs.
