Kairat President Kairat Boranbaev explained why the club decided to appoint Russian specialist Alexander Kerzhakov as head coach of the Kazakh team.

“Kerzhakov, first of all, is the top scorer in the Russian championship. His charisma as a leader probably played a role. We were looking for a coach with an attacking model, because half of the teams play closed football.

At the end of the year, we sit down and if we see any changes, we will continue to work with him,” Boranbaev said in a broadcast on the ArchiBall YouTube channel.

In the first match under the leadership of Kerzhakov, Kairat defeated Shakhtar Karaganda with a score of 4:2.
