Head Coach Russian team in diving Svetlana Moiseeva said that she hopes for a performance Nikita Shleikhera to the Spartakiad of the strongest, but it is too early to speak of this with complete certainty.
Schleicher was injured when he fell from a springboard during training before the start of the first stage of the Friendship Games in Kazan. The Spartakiad will be held from August 20 to 29.
– We can only hope now that Nikita will perform at Spartakiad, but time will tell how realistic that is. They put a “boot” on him to fix everything, the ligaments were already loose there, it is important now that the abrasions heal. Regarding the additional examination, it is necessary to wait until the swelling subsides, if the injury bothers, it will still be necessary to do an examination,” Moiseeva told .
