One of them is almost finished, in the second the player is not a suspect.
“I am all for Promes getting citizenship. He’s a good guy. It is not known if he is guilty in this criminal case, it may be a provocation. Promes deserved to obtain Russian citizenship. He has done a lot for Spartak and Russian football in general, and will do a lot in the future.
I would give him citizenship immediately. I don’t think the Department of Sports is against it either, they’re unlikely to see him as a bad person, there are just legal issues that don’t allow it to happen now,” said Gladilin at .
