Chairman of the board of directors “Lokomotiv” Yuri Nagornykh told that for the first time in many years the Moscow club was able to earn money thanks to the results of the summer transfer campaign.
On Saturday, in the home match of the 10th round of the MIR RPL, Lokomotiv defeated Spartak with a score of 3:1 and took the lead in the standings with 24 points. Later, Krasnodar eliminated the railway workers from the first line by beating Zenit (2:0). This summer, the Lokomotiv squad was supplemented by defender of the Mexican national team Cesar Montes, midfielder of the Armenian national team Edgar Sevikyan and striker of the Russian national team Dmitry Vorobyov. Additionally, midfielder Artem Timofeev signed a contract with Lokomotiv as a free agent.
— The club has a plus in the transfer campaign for the first time in many years. We are happy about it. A positive balance at the end of the window is an unusual situation for all Russian clubs in the current situation. But we did it, and the board of directors appreciates the work of the entire sports bloc for this. This was also helped by the rental of Mario (Mitai), which allowed us to buy Montes and rent Sevikyan. In general, we resolved the problems that I mentioned in an interview with the website in early September,” Nagornykh told the correspondent.
Lokomotiv will play the next match of the Russian Championship on October 6 at home against Krylya Sovetov.
