Musaev announced collaborative decision-making regarding Spartans' future in Krasnodar
In an exclusive interview with Match TV, Krasnodar's coach Murat Musaev discussed the transfer situation of one of the club's most valuable players, Eduard Spertsyan. According to Transfermarkt, Spertsyan's transfer value stands at 25 million euros, making him one of the top assets on the team.
Despite active rumours about a possible move to foreign clubs, particularly English Championship side Southampton, all decisions regarding Spertsyan's career are made with mutual agreement of both parties. The decisions are primarily made by Krasnodar, influenced by offers such as Southampton's bids ranging from $12 million to $14 million. Southampton's head coach Will Still has shown interest, while Spertsyan's agent also plays a role in negotiations. Spertsyan's contract with Krasnodar runs until June 2026, which adds complexity to these discussions.
Musaev praised Spertsyan's form at the start of the season, stating that he is in excellent shape and fully focused on his performances for Krasnodar. The coach has a respectful professional relationship with Spertsyan, allowing them to discuss career-related issues constructively.
Spertsyan has been a key player for Krasnodar since joining the club in 2021. He has played in 151 official matches, scoring 48 goals and providing 36 assists. His contributions have been instrumental in the team's success.
