"Ramal Huseynov never had any money in his pocket. There were times when he received his salary today and had no money left in the morning."
This was stated by Samir Musayev, the former forward of "Qarabağ", in an interview with futbolinfo.az.
We present the interview.
– Who was the most talented of the football players you played with during your career?
– In my opinion, Ruslan Musayev and Renat Abdashov were the most potential players among local football players in Azerbaijan. Unfortunately, the injury prevented Renat's career, and other factors prevented Ruslan's career.
– Who was the most hardworking of the football players you played with?
– Aslan Karimov. I have seen Aslan as the most hardworking and disciplined football player so far. This man never got tired of training. He did all his work to the maximum. I have never seen such a hardworking football player.
– The laziest football player you played with…
– Elchin Rahmanov. I played with him mostly in youth national teams. He didn't like running at all (laughs). But he was very technical.
– Who was the most serious, intimidating among your former teammates?
– I will mention Aslan Karimov's name again. In addition to being hardworking, Aslan was very serious in training. Young football players were afraid of him and were forced to take training seriously.
– The most funny football player you played with…
– It was very interesting to play with Mubariz Orujov. We never got bored when he was with us. He always made us laugh with his witty words and jokes.
– Who was the most quarrelsome of the football players you played with?
– Ramal Huseynov. That was his character. Perhaps he was the football player who received the most red cards in the teams he played for. It happened that he got a "red", missed two games and got another "red" when he returned. He argued with the opponent player and the referee.
– Who was the most extravagant, that is, the most wasteful, among your former teammates?
– Ramal Huseynov never had any money in his pocket. There were times when he received his salary today and had no money left in the morning. He spent money on everything. Namig Hasanov was also very wasteful.
– What about the most stingy football player you played with…
– Sergey Sokolov. I never saw him spend money during the time we played together. Maybe he sent it all home, that's why he had no money left. Other legionnaires spent money on something, but Sokolov did not.
– Who was the most educated of the football players you played with?
– Jahangir Hasanzadeh is very educated from the time he was a football player. There were no mobile phones or tablets at that time. But Jahangir was still busy reading.
– Who lied the most among your former teammates?
– Namig Hasanov. We are very close to him. When we were playing football, one of Namig's two words was a lie (laughs). Of course, then he turned it into a joke. But it was still difficult to believe what he said.
