Russian striker “Arisa” Alexander Kokorin he is unlikely to play for the Russian national team, so he can obtain Cypriot citizenship, believes the football player’s first coach Valery Staferov.
Earlier, Russian agent Alexei Safonov told that Kokorin wants to get Cypriot citizenship.
– Sasha is already an adult, so if he likes to play in Cyprus, let him get citizenship of this country. A man plays football, everything suits him in Aris. The situation is the same as with the Brazilians Malcolm and Claudinho, who came to play in Russia and will soon receive our citizenship. It’s normal in football.
Kokorin understands that he is better. Sasha is over thirty years old and I think we will not see him again in the Russian national team. Once he’s made such a decision, he’s unlikely to back down. It’s worth wishing Alexandre good luck,” Staferov told Sport24.
In total, Kokorin has 19 games and 8 goals for the Cypriot club.
