Football club “Khimki” has abandoned the idea of signing striker Alexander Kokorin. Roman Teryushkov, a member of the supervisory board of the Moscow Region club, told Sport-Express about this.
“The transfer of Kokorin to Khimki is beyond reality. At the beginning of the transfer window, we thought about making an offer to Alexander, but then we decided to refuse it, “Teryushkov shared. The specialist called the talks about the possible invitation of a player a joke. He added that the team representatives did not communicate with the football player.
On January 8, it was reported that Khimki is the only club that claims to be Kokorin. The management hoped that the newcomer of the team, Pavel Mamaev, would be able to influence the striker.
In early December, Fiorentina announced their readiness to lease Kokorin during the winter transfer window. Otherwise, the club is ready to terminate the contract.
Kokorin has been playing for Fiorentina since January 2021. During this time, he played ten matches in all tournaments and did not score with effective actions. Kokorin’s agreement with “violets” is valid until 2024.
