Head Coach “Wings of the Soviets” Igor Osinkine noted that the newcomer to the Samara team Benjamin Garre was not the only candidate on the club’s list, but it was decided to stop at him.
Garre moved to the Wings of the Soviets from Argentine Racing, a deal with a 22-year-old footballer is designed for 3.5 years.
“When they started looking at Benjamin, how many did they look at him?”
“We started actively monitoring him after the first reports of Pinyaev’s possible departure,” Metaratings.ru quotes Osinkin. – We watched a lot of games. He wasn’t the only candidate, but opted for Garr. He had a very good last season, despite his youth. He has overseas experience, having been in the Manchester City system for around four years. Is he distinguished by the universalism, the high speed, the high quality defensive game, characteristics of all Argentine footballers?
— Is it possible to compare his style with someone from the Argentine national team? For example, with Di Maria?
“No, it’s definitely not Di Maria. In the Argentina national team at the World Cup, there was no position in which Garre plays. He is an extreme midfielder who knows how to attack and defend, does a lot of work, is ready to play fast and intense football, this is what Argentinian footballers stand out for in the first place – character, speed, including the decision making .
– Will there be enough time to prepare him so that he joins the starting lineup in the first games?
– Time will tell us. He has to prove his worth, we don’t guarantee anyone a place in the first team. He has time to get in shape. It took him about 10 days to complete the papers, travel to Russia, pass the exams, arrive in Turkey, sign documents without training. But before that, he still trained for about a month at the Huracan training camp.
