“On behalf of the CSKA Supervisory Board, I express my gratitude to Sergei Fedorov. Under his leadership, CSKA twice won the Gagarin Cup, and Fedorov himself was twice recognized as the best coach of the KHL. These are significant achievements that underline CSKA’s status as one of the most prestigious clubs in the world. However, the results of the current season have not lived up to our expectations. The time is came to move forward. With the new season, the team will be led by Ilya Vorobyov, whose “appointment was approved today. We wish Ilya Petrovich success and good luck in his new role,” Bure said in an interview with Match TV.
