Spartak definitely don’t need a new goalkeeper, Nigmatullin believes

“Spartacus” doesn’t need new goalkeepers, former Russian national team goalkeeper says Sports Day after Day Ruslan Nigmatullin.

– For which positions does Spartak still need players?

– They’re definitely not needed for the goalkeeper position, but otherwise it’s hard to say. The situation with one of my favorite clubs is that the selection work is ongoing, but Koffrie class players still come from time to time. This transfer policy is very dubious, as the players are not taken for reinforcements, but for unknown reasons. How are they objectively stronger than the same Russian Spartak-2 players? It’s hard for me to say who is needed now. Zinkovsky understood, seems like a good option. He is both Russian and a fairly skilled player. Let’s see how Zinkovsky can prove himself in Moscow. As for the other posts, I have no answer to this question.

Of course, you need a skilled player in any line. But you have to look in the domestic market to avoid such unpleasant stories as with Larsson. It seemed like they took a good football player and hoped he was proud to play for Spartak. Now he is happy not to come to Moscow. The fewer such players, the better for Spartak. With this act, the player indicated his attitude towards the club. It means he didn’t put his soul into entering the field. And this is very important.

– You said the goalkeeper’s position doesn’t need to be strengthened. Should we expect progress? Maksimenko, because Selikhov , a bit like, has been the main in the championship in recent months? Or do you need to find a third keeper who will compete?

Who was third last season?

— Svinov.

– Yes, a guy with a Spartak surname came to sit in reserve for a whole season. He must have wasted a year of his career. Now he will fight for a place in the main team of Fakel.

As for the goalkeeper, the question arises: “Why?”. The third has almost no chance of playing. I think this post should be closed by a Spartak graduate. There is a good school, there are a lot of strong goalkeepers. You don’t need to take someone else. I don’t know Svinov’s work. It is possible that he is a talented and capable goalkeeper. But I doubt that he is completely stronger than his peers, who are at Spartak. The same Poplevchenkov, who went to the Kuban. Every year, Spartak have goalkeepers at the youth team level. If you take others, they should be stronger in the head and shoulders. There is no.

Maksimenko won the Cup this year, entering the first team. I believe this creates a competition in its own right. I don’t see any difference in the level of the club’s current goalkeepers. Therefore, the competition between Selikhov and Maksimenko is still ahead.

Goalkeeper Alexander Maksimenko has played in all four Russian Cup matches, conceding two goals. Spartak won the National Cup for the first time since 2003.
