russian biathlete Yevgeny Emerkhonov told that the head of the Udmurt Biathlon Federation, Ivan Cherezov, did not allow him to make the transition to the KhMAO-Ugra team due to compensatory payments, which amounted at the time to more than a million rubles.
Yemerkhonov competed under the RBU flag in the last Russian Championship in Tchaikovsky. The biathlete cannot complete the transition from the national team of Udmurtia to the team of Tatarstan. According to Emerkhonov, Cherezov does not want to let the athlete leave for free.
– The same story with the transition was three years ago. I wanted to go to Khanty-Mansiysk. Then Ivan Yurievich and I agreed to meet and discuss the terms. We came to the meeting with my father. We thought we were going to sit down and chat, but Cherezov said, “I can’t offer any conditions. I will only sign the transition after payment of the indemnities. At that time, they amounted to 1,250,000 rubles. They don’t want to let me go anywhere, and they don’t want to create conditions. How to be? said Yemerkhonov.
According to the RBU regulations on the procedure for the transfer of biathletes, compensation is established for the transfer of an athlete included or planned to be included in the next sports season in the list of candidates for the Russian national biathlon team . The amount depends on the age and achievements of the biathletes.
