Snowboarder wild vic said he had not received any offers to change his Russian citizenship.
– I returned to the United States in March, stayed there for two weeks, but then returned to Russia. I will train here. I had no offer to change sports citizenship. I ride with the Russian team! If I’m here, then I ride for this team. I wanted to end my career after the Olympics, but then I changed my mind.
Russian athletes are not allowed to compete, but I think to participate in other Games. I don’t think I will be able to participate in the World Cups if there is such an opportunity, but I could prepare for the Olympics.
Now I recover a lot, I do rehabilitation. I have a lot of health problems now: back, shoulder. When you are old, you have to devote a lot of time to health. But with the start of the winter season, I would like to train in the Urals, Siberia and Sochi, Wilde told .
Wild, 35, is from the United States. In May 2012, Wild received a Russian passport and after that he started playing for the Russian national team. At the Sochi Games in 2014, the snowboarder won gold in parallel slalom and parallel giant slalom.
