Roberto Morales: Tottenham is only a reserve for Malinovsky

Well-known journalist Roberto Morales told where Ruslan Malinovsky from Atalanta can go.

— Where can Malinovsky go from Atalanta in the winter, provided that the team sets serious goals, plays in the top 5 leagues in Europe and Ruslan plays consistently at the base?

- Malinovsky has only the Italian market, seriously. It has proven itself there, it is known there, the people who run it work in this market, and they can offer it there. These are teams of any level from Inter and possibly a little lower. In any case, it is there that he is well known as a football player and he has a positive resume there.

Other leagues? Very difficult. France and Spain - I think that there are no options. England? They said a lot before this season that there was interest in him. And England is generally such a football country that when there is an interest in a certain person, then he can be picked up by others.

But I do not see a clear strategy for working on this market. It can happen, but Italy comes first. There he created a good name for himself and I see the logic in letting Ruslan continue his career in Italy.

— Italian media regularly report serious interest in Malinovsky from Marseille and Tottenham. What do you think about Ruslan's transfer to these teams?

Marseille is a wild club. They want a lot of things, but you can guess. By the way, this is the only club in France where desires exceed strategy. Tottenham is really only a reserve for Ruslan.
