Dynamo said that Ovechkin’s participation in the club’s matches should be agreed upon by the new coach
The Dynamo football club spoke about the possibility of holding a match with the participation of the Russian striker of the Washington Capitals Alexander Ovechkin. It is reported by TASS.
The club noted that they would invite the striker to the BetBoom-Moscow Celebrity Cup (ISS) tournament, but it is still premature to talk about whether he will be able to play for the main team of the blue and white. “Alexander’s participation, firstly, will have to be agreed upon by the future head coach, and secondly, the season of the National Hockey League (NHL) will be on the nose, and you need to understand Alexander’s schedule,” the team’s press service said.
On June 1, Lokomotiv Moscow striker Artem Dzyuba assessed the likelihood of meeting Ovechkin on the ice. He called the hockey player a legend and noted that they respect each other. “Therefore, we could knock or something else only in a comic form. Everyone understands perfectly well that if we collided on the hockey rink, he would beat me, but football is my territory, ”added Dzyuba.
Ovechkin has been playing in the NHL since 2005. He spent all seasons in North America with Washington. Together with the club, the hockey player won the Stanley Cup in 2018.
