“Krychowiak’s return to Krasnodar is good news” – Shirokov

ex-player”Krasnodar » Roman Chirokov is delighted to learn that the Polish midfielder Grzegorz Krychowiak intends to return to the club this summer from Greek AEKa .

Krychowiak, 32, suspended his contract with Krasnodar in early March and joined AEK, where he played until the end of the season.

– Krasnodar needs experienced players, so Krychowiak’s return is good news. If there’s an experienced player in a line, then he’s just an uncle-mentor in midfield. It will probably be useful. Whether he left first or not, the decision will be made by the leaders, they know the whole situation.

Obviously, he’s coming back for the money. What fool would give him such sums in Europe? Moreover, it is not known what the situation will be there in the second half – everything is not so clear. Moreover, Krychowiak is not in high demand in the main European leagues and in the top teams. Therefore, it is obvious that money is one of the reasons.

Krychowiak’s return does not mean he will be an example for the rest. But we don’t need all that. We don’t need more than half the deaf-mute foreigners who are gone. Someone won’t be coming back – so that’s good. Everyone already fully understands who is needed and who is not. I don’t think players who were under contract are needed.

If we take Krasnodar, then they have their good young guys. They need one experienced player per line, and that’s it. If it is a foreigner, what to do? It was obvious that no one needed those who had gone to Europe. At least for the kind of money they like. It seems to me that they will all come back for a good sum,” Shirokov told Sport24.

The Pole’s contract with the Russian club is valid until June 30, 2024. He made 9 appearances for AEK, scoring 2 goals and providing 2 assists. The player’s current transfer value, according to Transfermarkt, is €11m.
