The Belarusian football club “Torpedo-BelAZ” explained the disadvantages of entering the Russian championship. Sport24 reports this.

Sports director of the Zhodino club Aleksey Yushkevich said that this will increase the team’s financial costs and also calls into question the ability to compete in European competition. He emphasized that it is not clear whether Belarusians will play in the Russian Premier League or the National Football League.
