Former head coach “Lokomotiv” Vladimir Eshtrekov said that in the new season of the Russian Premier League (RPL) railway workers will fight for high places, but not for the championship.
On Monday, Lokomotiv announced the departure of Miranchuk and goalkeeper Marinato Guilherme. Earlier, Rifat Zhemaletdinov and Maxim Glushenkov left the team.
— Nothing is happening with Lokomotiv. They parted ways with players who were out of contract. This decision was agreed with the management and the players. Glushenkov moved to Zenit, his choice. They have already left, what can I say. We have to ask ourselves whether there are players, whether the club will gain strength.
We need to solve the problems with the players we have now. In any case, Lokomotiv should fight for the top places, but I’m not talking about the championship. The question is how they will achieve this. Young people need to be included. We’ll see what happens, “Championship quotes Eshtrekova.
Last season, Lokomotiv took fourth place in the Russian Championship standings. The new RPL season starts on July 19. Lokomotiv will play at home against Akron in the first round.
