Former forward of Kyiv Dynamo and the Uzbekistan national team Maksym Shatskykh commented on the transfer of Uzbek defender Abduqodir Khusano from the French club Lens to the English club Manchester City.
— Maksym Oleksandrovych, how do you comment on the transfer of Uzbek defender Abduqodir Khusano to Man City?
— Firstly, players are not just taken there, especially in such top teams. Secondly, Man City will not buy a player just for the sake of having him. Other teams were also interested in Khusano. There was actually a queue of teams behind him. And those were almost all top clubs. So it's all in Khusano's hands, everything depends on him.
He definitely deserved this transfer to Man City. Khusano demonstrated his work ethic, play, dedication, desire, and everything else. I believe he will succeed at Manchester City. I just don't know if they will use Abduqodir in the lineup right away. I don't know, but I think we will see this soon.
— Considering Manchester City's results, maybe Guardiola will start putting Khusano in the starting lineup right away.
— Yes, maybe. Given that Man City cannot boast of results right now, they may try to utilize him fully on the field immediately. We'll see!
