"Everything will depend on the next game. We still have a chance to qualify for the European Cup".
This was stated by Brazilian midfielder of "Araz-Nakhchivan" Felipe Santos in an interview with futbolinfo.az.
We present that interview.
– In the 27th round, you have an important game against "Neftchi". The opponent surpassed "Araz-Nakhchivan" in the tournament table thanks to the victory in the last round. What are your expectations from the match?
– In my opinion, the game against "Neftchi" will determine how the last rounds of the championship will go. We have to win. Now is the time to show who are the great players. I am looking forward to this match.
– Can "Araz-Nakhchivan", currently in sixth place, qualify for the European Cups?
– Everything will depend on the next game. We still have a chance to qualify for the European Cup. But if we fail to score points in the match against "Neftchi", the opponent will increase the difference, as a result, our chances will decrease.
– "Araz-Nakhchivan"'s performance lacks stability this season. What do you see as the reason for this?
– Unfortunately, this season did not go as we planned. I think we have a team that can go to Europe, but a lot has happened. However, we still have a chance.
– The end of the season is approaching. Are there offers from more ambitious clubs in Azerbaijan or other countries?
– I have not received any offers from Azerbaijan yet. However, my focus is primarily on Azerbaijan. I will make a decision about my future in the coming days.
– If "Araz-Nakhchivan" stays out of the European Cups, will your departure from the team be finalized?
– My contract with "Araz-Nakhchivan" is valid until June, and so far I have not received any offers from the club management to extend it.
