Double Olympic champion Abdulrashid Sadulayev told when he will return to training and performances after being suspended from the Baku tournament.
Sadulayev was not allowed to participate in the Olympic qualifying tournament, which took place April 5-7 in Baku, shortly before the start of the competition. Alikhan Zhabrailov, who replaced Sadulayev, managed to obtain a license in the weight category up to 97 kg, but at the moment it is still unclear whether Sadulayev will be able to be allowed to participate in the Olympics.
— If you fail to get into the Olympics, can you imagine that you will just go to Paris with the team?
– I don’t know, I didn’t think about it, I always think that I will go with the team to fight. There are a lot of questions for me that I can’t find the answers to. And I don’t want to make any loud statements.
— When will you have your next training session?
“In three or four days I will return and immediately go to Makhachkala for the training camp before the Russian Championship,” Sadulayev told .
The 27-year-old wrestler has won the Olympics twice, winning gold in 2016 and 2020.
