Rodnina told Vasily Berezutsky that this is not the time to call for leaving Russia
Three-time Olympic champion in figure skating, State Duma deputy Irina Rodnina responded to former defender of the Russian national team and Moscow CSKA Vasily Berezutsky, who called on athletes to leave the country. Her words are quoted by Sport24.
Rodnina said that at the moment there is not a single Russian football player who has achieved great results in Europe. She drew attention to the fact that this is his choice, but not all athletes. “Now is not the time to come out with slogans!” – the deputy considered.
On November 14, Vasily Berezutsky called on Russian athletes to leave the country. He stated that if athletes want to achieve something at a high level, they should try themselves abroad.
At the moment, several Russian football players are playing in European championships. Among the most famous are Alexander Golovin, representing Monaco, and Alexey Miranchuk, representing the Italian Atalanta. Daler Kuzyaev plays for the French Le Havre, Arsen Zakharyan plays for the Spanish Real Sociedad. Alexander Kokorin from the Italian Fiorentina is on loan at the Cypriot Aris.
