We sincerely wanted Zhenya to return to his native Traktor and, of course, for our part, we confirmed all of Zhenya’s wishes under the terms of the contract, but more than two weeks ago he announced his final decision. No problem, let’s move on. There will be new heroes in “Traktor,” Savin said, as quoted by RB Sport.
