Maxim Glushenkov, the forward for Lokomotiv Moscow, recently shared his take on Spartak Moscow, a club he wore as a player from 2019 to 2022, during a stint that saw him feature in just eleven matches for them.
Glushenkov explained that his desire to beat Spartak has always existed, but it carries no extra weight beyond the battles he has with Lokomotiv and other top teams. He described Spartak as a chapter he would rather close, sometimes to the point of wanting to erase it from memory, comparing the experience to a troubling dream.
This season, the 23-year-old has been a steady presence for Lokomotiv, appearing in eight fixtures across all competitions and contributing two goals with two assists. His performances have helped keep the team competitive as they navigate a demanding schedule.
Lokomotiv Moscow sits mid-table with 25 points after 22 rounds in the Russian Premier League, occupying 11th place. The squad is preparing for an away clash against Orenburg, a match set to kick off on April 16 at 14:00 Moscow time as the clubs push to secure valuable points in the chase for European spots and league stability.
