“We tried to buy another striker, more older than Strandberg and Aliyev, but ultimately did not happen.
“In winter to buy a footballer of the desired class in general is very difficult. While Musa - virtually the only option in attack. But we hope the progress of young forwards,” said Leonid Slutsky to sport - express.ru.
