Alexey Berezutsky: “Why did you leave CSKA? The main factor is February 24th. We don't know where we're going..."

Former head coach of CSKA Moscow Alexei Berezutsky told why he decided to leave this club last summer.

“I made the decision to leave CSKA before my own departure took place. There are several factors. The Most Important - February 24 (February 24, 2022 - the day of the Russian attack on Ukraine - ed.).

Another factor is that it is not clear where we are going. The vagueness of prospects in the general plan of football in Russia. Where are we going, what are we fighting for? By the summer, it was clear that the ban on Russian football in the world would be for a long time, and this had nothing to do with UEFA: other teams simply didn’t want to play with us,” Berezutsky said on the air of the Comment.Trainer YouTube channel.
