Valery Gladilin, the former coach of Moscow Spartak, has stated that Quincy Promes should be ready for the Russian Premier League restart in Moscow. He noted that if the United Arab Emirates does not provide a guarantee, Promes would begin his training in Moscow. Gladilin described Spartak’s approach as a blend of regular club sessions and targeted study, emphasizing that Promes is a seasoned professional who should have no issues meeting the club’s demands and schedules.

Earlier this year, on June 19, Promes faced a Dutch court ruling that sentenced him to 18 months in prison for stabbing his cousin. In addition to this case, he remains a defendant in separate criminal proceedings related to drug smuggling and related offenses, with authorities noting wiretapped conversations as part of their investigation.

Promes has been with Spartak since February 2021 and previously represented the club between 2014 and 2018. The Dutch forward helped Spartak clinch the Russian league title in the 2016/17 season, underscoring his past impact on the team and its success. [Euro-Football.Ru]
In the current campaign, Promes appeared in 17 Russian Championship matches and scored six goals. Spartak sits fifth in the league standings with 30 points, reflecting a competitive but fluctuating run for the squad as the season unfolds. [Euro-Football.Ru]
There has been ongoing discussion within Spartak about whether Promes faces potential extradition from the UAE back to the Netherlands, a development that could affect his availability and the team’s planning. The club has been monitoring legal developments closely as it weighs travel, visa, and competition implications for the squad. [Euro-Football.Ru]
