Aykhan Abbasov: "We have plans, we are waiting for the budget."
After the match between "Shamakhi" and "Kapaz" (2:1) in the XXXI round of the Azerbaijan Premier League, the head coach of the home team, Aykhan Abbasov, answered journalists' questions. Sport24.az reports that the specialist first expressed his views on the meeting... - It was a stressful, interesting, and fast-paced game. The fans created a great atmosphere. We wanted to win. Winning at home is different. We achieved the victory we wanted. The opponent fought well. Both teams had chances. We have to play the upcoming games with great motivation. We can move up to the top ranks. Games are important for the development of our youth. We believed that we would achieve our goal this year. We need such matches to be better next season. - You have one striker left. - It's difficult with one striker. We can make tactical changes. We have a difficult trip to Tovuz ahead. Brahim and Michael had yellow cards. We wanted to substitute Michael, but it didn't work out. - Have you started negotiations to add young players from other teams to your squad? - Yes. - What are you hoping for in the Tovuz trip? - "Turan Tovuz" is motivated. They want to rise to third place. We didn't play badly in the 3 games between us. Because we are a new team, we couldn't win even though we played well in some matches. Every game is difficult for us, and the Tovuz trip is even more difficult. - Who will you continue with? - Our negotiations are ongoing. - Is there a possibility that Mikels will stay? - The players have offers. We have the smallest budget. Other teams support us besides us. We have plans, we are waiting for the budget. We are talking to young football players. - You watched the "Imishli" - "Gabala" game from the stadium. What are your impressions? - I go to many games. It was an important game for the First League. "Imishli" was more eager. "Gabala" has young people, I want to see them at work. We have our selection until the summer. I will watch everyone. They are also our future opponents. - If you had a sponsor, could you create a "Shamakhi" that is ambitious for European cups? - The sponsor's opinion is important. If it were up to Aykhan Abbasov, he would. Nuh Tarverdiyev
