"Since the legionnaire limit has been abolished in the new season, there will be many foreign players in our league. However, if the legionnaire to be transferred is at the level of a local player, it is better not to come here. Because future players must be top-level and add interest to the league."
Idman.biz reports that these words were said by Aqil Nabiyev, head coach of the Azerbaijani U-17 national team, in an interview with AZERTAC, while talking about the summer transfers of Premier League clubs.
The expert said that the players brought by "Qarabag" may be successful: "It is difficult to say this with certainty. Because I have not watched the games of those football players. But Gurban Gurbanov's player selection is obvious. Most of the legionnaires he brought have been successful. Yassin Benzia's departure is a big loss for the team. I cannot say these thoughts about Marko Vesovic. Because the Montenegrin player had lost his place in the main squad and was not in his previous form."
According to the head coach, Elmar Baxshiyev selected good football players for "Araz-Nakhchivan", and Rashad Sadigov for "Zira": "The transfer of two familiar faces from "Qarabag" - Patrick Andrade and Hamidu Keyta - to the Nakhchivan representative was the right step. Both football players know our league well. Also, Rashag Sadigov attracted familiar names to "Zira". Although Vincent Thill did not give what was expected of him in "Sabah", he can make a name for himself in the "eagles" squad. Football is such that you may not show yourself well in one club, but you can perform excellently in another team. Probably, the head coach saw some potential in him."
A. Nabiyev also spoke about the preparations of "Sabah", "Neftchi" and "Sumgayit" for the new season: "Sabah" opened the season early due to the European Cups. I also watched the game against Slovenian "Selye". It would not be correct to say anything about transfers now. It is difficult to evaluate any football player with one game. Samir Abasov will build a determined team in "Neftchi". This is one of his main principles. Serbian well-known expert Sasa Ilic was brought to "Sumgayit". His football player and coaching experience will benefit the team."
The expert said that regional clubs are also active in transfers: "Karvan" and "Imishli" after a long time, and "Gabala" returned to the Premier League after a 1-year break. "Red-blacks" is a team with good infrastructure among regional clubs. "Turan Tovuz" has also invested well in football. A revival is felt in "Kapaz". Aykhan Abbasov is trying to build a good squad of young people and legionnaires in "Shamakhi". If a regional team does not have good finances, it is meaningless to play in the Premier League. Currently, "Imishli" and "Karvan" are experiencing some difficulties in this regard."
