According to a source, a significant reduction in the budget of the CSKA football club is coming. In particular, less funds will be allocated for transfers, in other words, the purchase of players.
Now it’s generally in question: will the army team buy the Turkish midfielder Yazici from the French “Lille”, who has proven himself in the first matches as part of the Moscow team. The amount for the Turk is rather big – 11 million euros.
An acute financial deficit arose for obvious reasons: UEFA recently extended the suspension of Russian clubs and the national team from participation in prestigious European tournaments: the Champions League, the Europa League, the Conference League. And there, millions of euros were paid for participation alone, not to mention a relatively successful performance. Thus, the same army team lost a serious increase in the budget. From the club office of CSKA they report that the aforementioned Yazici will be bought only if the Muscovites make concessions in Lille. Namely: they will break the payment of 11 million into several tranches …
As previously reported by the president of FC CSKA Evgeny Giner, the club’s annual budget was more than 70 million euros for the season. Almost half of this amount (about 50 percent) was provided by Roman Abramovich on a voluntary basis. Whether he will now be as generous as in former years is unknown. The businessman now has his own problems: he was literally robbed by representatives of the British authorities. We made a deal to sell the London “Chelsea”, the brainchild of a businessman, so that Roman Arkadyevich will not receive … not a penny! Most likely, he will, to put it mildly, have no time for CSKA.
A possible reduction in the club’s budget was also reported in Spartak. They say poverty is not a vice. Who cares: Russian clubs, due to UEFA sanctions, may end up with a broken trough, almost below the poverty line. But for some reason they are not sorry: as they did not know how to play, they still do not know how, by and large. Turn your eyes on the development of youth football, gentlemen.
