Spartak Weighs Move for Rostov’s Danil Glebov as Transfer Talks Heat Up
Rumors swirl around a potential mid-season shift that could reshape the midfield in Moscow. Spartak Moscow is reportedly considering a serious bid for Danil Glebov, the versatile midfielder who has been a fixture at Rostov. The chatter comes from Ivan Karpov, a journalist who has been tracking the story for his publication and its telegraph channel, noting that Spartak is prepared to offer in the range of 6 to 7 million euros for the player. Rostov, however, is holding firm, with a reported asking price near 10 million euros. The source emphasizes that Spartak has a clear interest in bringing Glebov into their squad, though no formal agreement had been reached at the time of reporting. It is also noted that a previous contract with Glebov existed in the summer of 2021, but that particular deal did not come to fruition. (Ivan Karpov, telegraph channel)
Glebov joined Rostov for the 2018/2019 season and has since been a regular presence in their midfield. In the current Russian Premier League campaign, he has appeared in 27 matches, contributing four goals and three assists. His market value has been reported at approximately 7.5 million euros, reflecting his consistent showings and the interest from top clubs. The ongoing transfer talk underscores Rostov’s status as a seller in a market where clubs weigh development potential against immediate squad needs. (Transfer market portal, 2024 updates)
Commentary from former Spartak Moscow goalkeeper and USSR national team figure Anzor Kavazashvili has tied a thread through the discussion, offering observations on Rostov’s form in the closing stage of the season. Kavazashvili’s analysis points to a team that has faced a sequence of results which could influence how Rostov negotiates any potential sale. His remarks add a layer of perspective on how midflight results can impact transfer dynamics and club strategy in Russian football. (Anzor Kavazashvili, interview notes)
For fans and analysts watching the market closely, the situation with Glebov serves as a reminder of the delicate balance clubs strike between nurturing homegrown talent and pursuing strategic acquisitions. A bid at 6 to 7 million euros would mark a significant move for Spartak, given the player’s established record in the league and his growing reputation in the domestic landscape. Rostov would need to assess not only the immediate financial implications but also the potential to reinvest that value into the squad, preserving competitiveness while managing the player’s potential departure. It remains to be seen whether the two clubs can bridge the gap in valuation and finalize terms before the transfer window closes. (Industry reports, ongoing coverage)
