Athletistic/Football. Head coach of the Russian national team Valery Karpin explained the reason why Alexei Miranchuk and Arsen Zakharyan were not included in the application for the November national team training camp.

Karpin stressed that the list of players called up for training camp is as close to the final roster as possible. He also noted that there was another round in the RPL and the French League, from where Golovin and Kuzyaev were called up, so making changes in the team is still possible.

Concerning Alexei Miranchuk and Arsen Zakharyan, Karpin confirmed that the reason for their non-inclusion in the nomination was due to lack of playing training. The coaching team is carefully monitoring their performances and hopes that by the next training camp, both players will play regularly for their clubs. Karpin noted that on November 13 all players will gather in Novogorsk to begin preparations, and on November 18 the team will travel to Volgograd.
