"If I'm not mistaken, "Neftchi" is the club that has made the most transfers this summer. According to what I've heard, two more transfers are expected to take place in the near future." These words were said by Aghasalim Mirjavadov, a member of the AFFA Coaches Committee, in his statement to Sport24.az.
The experienced specialist evaluated "Neftchi's" first-round match with "Shamakhi":
"Currently, the team needs to find its game. "Shamakhi" played smart football in the match against "Neftchi". There is a lot of work to be done at "Neftchi", the squad needs to be formed. It is normal for fans to criticize the team. We have always seen "Neftchi" in the top places. Something can be said at the end of August. The club should have one goal - the fight for the championship! This goal has continued since I worked there. If the goal is different, the situation will not be good. "Neftchi's" results in recent years are a disgrace, but now new players have been invited. We need to wait and give the team time."
It should be noted that "Neftchi" agreed to a draw with "Shamakhi" in the first round of the Misli Premier League. 1:1
