Zenit defender Chistyakov speaks in favor of playing matches with Asian teams

st. PETERSBURG, September 27 – RIA Novosti, Dmitry Edigarev. Petersburg football club “Zenith” Dmitry Chistyakov said that in the current situation it would be interesting to play with Asian teams.

According to previous media reports, the Russian Football Union (RFU) is considering joining the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) due to sanctions from FIFA and UEFA. It is stated that unlike UEFA, AFC does not have a negative attitude towards Russia.

“If you get the number of games, I would like to try to play in Asia but right now I don’t understand how that is possible. I don’t care, just because I want to play more. Keep calm to hold the All-Star Game of the Russian Premier League (RPL), because there are not so many matches anymore. It would be interesting at the end of the season,” Chistyakov said on the broadcast of the Zenit YouTube channel .

The footballer also said that his lack of English prevented him from communicating with the Zenit legionnaires.

“I want to learn a foreign language because it’s frustrating not being able to communicate normally with partners and coaches. Speaking of relationships with Dejan Lovren, it’s almost nonexistent. I don’t speak English and he speaks a lot of Russian. Bad. Willingness to study. No communication off the field,” added Chistyakov.

Zenit is leading the RPL standings with 26 points after ten games.
