Agent Aleksey Safonov said that the goalkeeper of Krylya Sovetov Sergey Ryzhikov could be in Barcelona.
“You told me that Buffon could have come to Rubin.”
– Yes, it could have happened. Buffon writes about this in his book. Serega still laughed that he would have a very cool successor!
There were negotiations, but did not grow together. And Ryzhikov could go to Barcelona.
– When?
– It was after that legendary match. [«Рубина» с «Барселоной»]. Then Valdez also wanted to go to America. I was introduced to Sandro Rosell. We talked a lot.
Serega and Rubin often played against the Spaniards, and Red stood very well. As a result, Valdes changed his mind about going to MLS. And the most annoying is that later Valdez broke the crosses. And he did not play, and crossed the road for us (laughs).
– What were the conditions?
– Serge lost about 300-400 thousand euros net per year.
– Well, this is nonsense. If you play for Barca.
“He said so.” Serega said he was ready to play for Barca for free. In Rubin, he received 2.2 lemons, and in Barca – 1.6.
He now wants to go to Europe. There are options with Dynamo from Zagreb, Turkish teams.
– Again. Ryzhikov could become the main goalkeeper?
– Yes. Seryoga has a cool character. It creates a pleasant microclimate. For him, money is not the main thing. He has not played enough, ”said the agent.
