Former president of Lokomotiv Nikolai Naumov commenting on information about the conflict between the head coach of Spartak Guillermo Abascalem and the team forward Alexander Sobolev told that if Evgeny Melezhikov had still worked at the club, such situations would not have arisen.
On Wednesday, journalist Ivan Karpov reported that Abaskal, after the match of the 10th round of the RPL with the Samara “Wings of the Soviets”, suspended Sobolev from training in the general group until his return from the Russian national team due to a violation of discipline. . According to , the striker was suspended after an emotional response to Abascal’s claims, which the Spaniard presented in a harsh and insulting manner. Melezhikov left the post of general director of Spartak in June.
“The fact is that scandals have never benefited anyone. When something doesn’t work, scandals arise. The manager must pay attention to this situation and resolve it. And so that all this does not leak out and harm the club.
When Melezhikov was fired, I said that Spartak was doing this in vain. Because he is a very strong leader: he knows how to hold the reins of power, even if he himself is perhaps not very visible. But a new leader has arrived who, unfortunately, does not interfere in this situation in any way. Or he intervenes, but it doesn’t work – that’s where situations like this happen. At first Georgy Dzhikia was sent to the bench, now there are problems with Sobolev.
Neither you nor I can tell who is right and who is wrong. Most likely, everyone is to blame. Abascal is responsible for not having found a common language. Sobolev nevertheless remains one of the main players. If he violates something, just tell him about it. If this does not work for you, you need to contact the club manager, who will chat with Sobolev.
I am sure that if Melezhikov had been there, he would have resolved all these situations. There were no such scandals under him. It depends a lot on the club manager. His work may not be as visible, but it is very important. Today, that is not the case. And these scandals will not lead to anything good. I think it’s a disadvantage for the team’s results,” Naumov told .
The Rouge et Blanc will host Paris NN Nizhny Novgorod on Sunday in the 12th round match of the Russian Championship. Watch the live broadcast of the match from 1:55 p.m. on the MATCH PREMIER channel, as well as on the matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru sites.
