Former Russian youth team striker Nikita Filatov believes that striker Maxim Karpov can become a star for Sibir Novosibirsk.
On Monday, Sibir announced the transfer of Karpov; the player signed a two-year contract with the team.
– Karpov is a great master. Despite the bad end of last season, he could become a star in Sibir. Let’s see how things go for him there. There are guys in Novosibirsk who can solve the problems. But Shirokov and Karpov will not be able to carry the team alone. Let’s see if the youngsters will take on the role of leaders. A lot will depend on it, “said Filatov, quoted by RB Sport.
Karpov is the winner of the Gagarin Cup with Metallurg Magnitogorsk.
