The head coach of CSKA, Vladimir Fedotov, earned recognition as the best coach of the 2022/23 Russian Premier League season, according to the league’s official Telegram channel.
The 56-year-old specialist became the first figure in the history of the Russian Championship to claim two silver medals in succession with two different clubs.
Following 30 rounds, CSKA accumulated 58 points and earned a place in the Russian Cup super-final. The cup clash against Krasnodar is scheduled for June 11 at the Luzhniki stadium, with kick-off set for 17:00 Moscow time.
Last season, Russia saw a fifth consecutive St. Petersburg triumph. It is remembered that Fedotov led Zenit to the league title in Saint Petersburg, while Spartak finished third in the standings, and Rostov along with Akhmat completed the top five.
Khimki and Torpedo were relegated directly to the First Division, whereas Rubin Kazan and Baltika Kaliningrad advanced to the combined division.
Earlier reports noted that Zenit midfielder Malcolm was named the best player of the 2022/23 RPL season.
