Sport24: all clubs in Italy refused Russian footballer Alexander Kokorin
Italian clubs playing in Serie A and B refused to sign a contract with the Russian striker of Fiorentina Alexander Kokorin. It is reported by Sport24.
According to the source, the 32-year-old footballer was offered outsiders in Serie A and Serie B clubs, but the Italian teams did not want to pay the striker a high salary. It is noted that Kokorin can continue his career in Israel, Cyprus or Turkey, as he does not intend to return to Russia.
On July 17, Kokorin participated in the Fiorentina match for the first time in 15 months. The striker entered the field in a friendly match between the Violets main team against the youth team and scored an assist.
Since August 2022, Kokorin has been playing for Cypriot Aris on loan. According to Sport-Express, the team was satisfied with the performance of the Russian, but could not redeem him because of the high salary. Kokorin’s contract with Fiorentina runs until June 30, 2024.
