Fauzia Najemba, a Ugandan national team forward who plies her trade with Dynamo, shares a candid perspective on following men’s football in Russia. In a recent interview cited by Euro-Football.Ru, Najemba admitted she does not track the men’s game closely. “Do the names Dzyuba and Smolov tell me something? NO. I don’t follow men’s football much in Russia. Of course, I watch the men’s Moscow Dynamo results, but nothing more,” she explained.
During the current Russian championship season, Najemba has appeared in 17 matches and found the back of the net six times, demonstrating a consistent scoring rate for her team. Her performances have contributed to Dynamo’s overall campaign, validating her role as a key attacker in domestic competition.
On the club side, Artem Dzyuba’s move to Lokomotiv last season signaled a notable shift for the squad. The contract was extended on a 1+1 basis, reinforcing the team’s plans to maintain a strong forward presence. In all competitions, Dzyuba has recorded three goals and three assists across 12 appearances, underscoring his experience and contribution to Lokomotiv’s attack.
Lokomotiv’s progress in the Russian Premier League has been steady. After 11 weeks, the team sits in fourth place with 19 points, reflecting a competitive start to the season. The club finished eighth in the league last year, and current form suggests they are pushing to climb higher in the standings as the campaign unfolds.
Regarding public perception and career coverage, there have been controversial and unverified rumors surrounding Dzyuba’s career choices prior to joining Lokomotiv. Such reports have circulated in various media outlets but remain unconfirmed by official statements from the player or the club. As discussions about players’ pasts continue to surface, the focus for clubs and fans often returns to on-field performance, consistency, and team dynamics rather than unverified personal histories.
