Athletistic / Football. Rubin midfielder and former Spartak player Oleg Ivanov assessed the prospects of Russian football legend Alexander Mostovoy as head coach of the red and whites.

“Mostovoy, in my opinion, comments on everything and everywhere. By nature, he has pathological rigor. One actress had a reprise: “Well, take me, well, take me too (Mostovoy -). Rating Athletistic): “This one didn’t play football, this one didn’t play – why don’t I coach?” I probably couldn’t do it myself. Although I have to admit that he was a great footballer and achieved a lot. But I have the feeling that he doesn’t so much want to coach Spartak but rather receive the salary of Abascal or Tedesco. I’m an excellent footballer – give me a million or two a year too…

It seems to me that if you tell him: “Sasha, work for six months without pay, show yourself,” he will not agree. If he really wanted to work as a coach, he would have started somewhere by now. The same Karp (Valery Karpin – Rating Athletistic) and went to the Spanish First League and coached Armavir. Andrei Tikhonov now works in the First League, Dmitry Alenichev comes from the Second League. And at 56 years old, for starters, and with a top team, I personally don’t know of such cases,” Ivanov said, as quoted by Championship.

During his football career, Alexander Mostovoy managed to play for Spartak, Portuguese Benfica, French Caen and Strasbourg, as well as Spanish Celta and Alaves. As part of the Russian national team, the midfielder played 65 matches and scored 13 goals.
