Athletistic/ Football. Recently, a trend has been established in the world to withdraw Russian athletes from international competitions. In particular, the Russian national team and Russian clubs cannot participate in tournaments under the auspices of FIFA and UEFA. Emmanuel Adebayor, a former striker for several Premier League clubs, spoke about it.

– Of course, that’s not fair. In this world, alas, much is dishonest. I feel sorry for the Russian team and Russian football players. But what can we do to change the situation one way or another? Nothing. Obviously, we must allow the RFU and FIFA to dialogue. I think at some point you can find a good solution that will free Russia from the ban. Russian players do nothing wrong and they are not responsible for anything. They just want to do their job. They should be allowed to play, – Sport24 quotes Adebayor.
