Interview of Ilkin Girtimov, former football player of "Kapaz", to Sport24.az
- Will the transfer to "Zagatala" take place?
- Yes, I will probably wear the uniform of "Zagatala" in the new season. True, I have not signed an official contract yet. But most likely, I will defend the honor of my native region's team.
- You probably had a conversation with the management or head coach about the goals set for the team in the new season...
- We will fight for the top positions as much as we can. How much it will work out, time will tell. Like every team, we also want to perform successfully.
- You will play in the First League club for the first time. Won't it be difficult?
- No, I don't think it will be difficult. I have played in the championship of reserve teams and have seen difficult times. True, something may seem unfamiliar, but I don't think there will be any difficulty.
- What caused you not to stay in "Kapaz"?
- This has nothing to do with the club management or the head coach. Thank you, Ilgar and Adil muallim wanted me to stay. Due to some nuances, I wanted to come to "Zagatala", my region myself.
- Your former team "Kapaz" had an unsuccessful start to the season. In your opinion, what is the reason for the failure?
- Everyone wants to start the championship successfully. The composition of "Kapaz" changed a lot during the off-season. It takes time for the new team to form and for the players to understand each other. It is not right to blame everything on Adil muallim. The team does not consist only of the head coach and 11 players on the field... The head coach wanted to bring some players to the camp. Some of Shukurov's wishes did not come true, and those who came joined the team late. Ganja fans are demanding. I have played there myself, I am aware of the atmosphere. I repeat, it takes a little time. God willing, everything will be fine.
- In the coming days, the national team will have matches with Iceland and Ukraine. What are your expectations from the national team?
- First of all, I wish our national team success. The abolition of the legionnaire limit negatively affects our football. Both national team matches will be difficult. I hope that our national team will make us happy. I expect a good game and a successful result from our national team.
