VTB United League does not plan to change limit on foreign players, Kushchenko says

According to the current limit on the number of foreign players in the VTB United League, teams cannot include more than six foreigners in their application.

— Most clubs spend money on foreign players. Is this optimal?

— The legislation has been changed regarding professional leagues. The league itself determines the number of foreign players, for now we will not change anything, but we have the right to do so. The limit is now optimal; it gives the right to invite very high-quality players and develop Russian basketball players.

If our schools produced high-quality Russians, they would not accept foreign players. High-quality basketball players should play in the VTB United League. “Enisey” and “PARMA”, for example, did not use the maximum number of foreign players last year.

Super Bowl prize money? We don’t think about it, the title is more important here. For our teams, these are usually official matches, and the cup above our heads can then go to the club museum, “the correspondent reports, reporting Kushchenko’s words.
