Krasnodar Kuban President about Yura Movsisyan's transfer

Russia’s FC Krasnodar Kuban President Sergey Galitsky announced that Yura Movsisyan wished to move to FC Spartak Moscow and they did not make serious attempts to keep him,

“We let Movsisyan go for several reasons. First and foremost, we do not need an imbalance in the players’ salaries. Second, it is not right to keep a player who has a chance to play in a more prominent club.

Spartak Moscow is a high-class brand. Yura wished to move to Spartak and we did not make serious attempts to keep him. We were happy for and proud of him. He, together with Wánderson, became the top scorer of the Russian League. We let Movsisyan go only when we found his replacement,” Sport Express reports.
