CSKA released the defender Vladimir Grudinin V”“Severstal” in order not to prevent the 20-year-old hockey player from developing, the sports director of the capital club Denis Denisov told .
At the end of 2023, CSKA traded Grudinin to Severstal Cherepovets.
— CSKA students Vladimir Grudinin and Alexander Samoilov now play for Severstal. Do you plan to bring them back in the future?
— As they say, you can’t promise anything, life goes on, players develop. They have a lot of time, which is fundamental for a player’s growth. Therefore, of course, we look at everyone, we are absolutely honest with all the guys, we respect all the agreements. I think that no one has any grudge against the CSKA hockey club.
— Why was Grudinin transferred to Cherepovets?
— He played little. He has exactly the same reason as with Yarosh. We did not want to stop his development. To grow, you need a lot of playing time, this time on the ice in Severstal was promised to him and, accordingly, they give it, Denisov told .
Grudinin, 20, played 55 games for Severstal last season, scoring 11 points (2+9) with a utility rating of -11. His contract with Cherepovets runs until May 30, 2025.
