Denis Glushakov, the Russian footballer, has publicly voiced a negative view of players associated with a quartet known as Sports Express. He explained that he has not read anything specific about kudrobers, yet rumors have reached him, and he has formed a clear stance. He noted that his eldest daughter relayed information to him and he told her not to engage with anything connected to them. He admitted that he does not understand the reasons behind the attention this group generates and emphasized his desire to shield his family from such material.
Glushakov expanded on the sources of these impressions, saying he has stayed away from any reports about the group, but family conversations have made the topic unavoidable. He stressed that a parent’s instinct is to protect a child from troubling content and he urged his eldest daughter to avoid anything related to them. He added that the motives driving the world of gossip and online chatter are beyond his comprehension, and he hopes the media will focus on football achievements rather than sensationalism.
On October 3, the 37-year-old footballer joined Ska-Rostov from the Media League, an organization whose president is the rapper Basta. The move marked another chapter in a career that has seen him navigate various clubs and leagues, with attention on how such transfers can reshape a player’s trajectory and the team’s ambitions in the coming seasons.
The midfielder spent a significant portion of his career at Spartak Moscow, playing for the club from 2013 through 2019. He was part of the squad that won the Russian Premier League in the 2016/17 season, lifting the trophy alongside the red-and-white team. After leaving Spartak, he signed with Akhmat Grozny and, in July 2020, transferred to Khimki, where he remained for a season and a half. Ahead of the 2024/25 campaign, Glushakov returned to a Moscow regional side, continuing to contribute as a seasoned presence in the domestic game.
There were also rumors that a political path could be offered in the State Duma, presented as an alternative to quadrobing. While not every detail is confirmed, the chatter reflects how high profile athletes can attract interest beyond the pitch and how public life and sport sometimes intersect in unexpected ways.
