"Yes, the club has offered me a new contract. They want me to stay at the club."
This was stated by Orkhan Aliyev, the striker of the Kyrgyz club "Ozgon", in an interview with sportal.az.
We present that interview:
– The Kyrgyzstan league is over. How did your career at "Ozgon" go? How do you rate it?
- Overall, it can be rated well. Because we played nine matches, scored seven goals and made one assist. I think everything went normally.
– You scored quite a few goals in the Kyrgyzstan league. Do you think you could have scored more goals if you had played there from the beginning of the season?
- I think so, yes. If I had come to Kyrgyzstan from the beginning of the season, I could have scored more goals. I haven't even played four games yet due to injury. You can also look at the statistics. My league statistics are one of the best in the championship I did in a short time.
- Is the Kyrgyzstan championship very different from the Azerbaijan Premier League?
- The Kyrgyzstan league is developing and it is a championship that I like. If they are more professional in their approach, they will be successful soon. I was also following the Azerbaijan Premier League. The level is rising. It's just that, in any case, local football players play less in the teams that are in the 5th-6th places.
– Will you stay in "Ozgon" yourself? Has the club offered you a new contract?
- Yes, the club has offered me a new contract. They want me to stay at the club. I will make my final decision in the near future. I have not made my full decision yet.
– How about from the Azerbaijan Premier League, have you received offers? Which clubs have offers from you?
- No one from the Azerbaijan Premier League has spoken to me. Currently, the fight continues in the Premier League. In Kyrgyzstan, the championship ended on November 9. Maybe there will be an offer from Azerbaijan, we will see together.
– What step will you take yourself? Do you want to stay in Kyrgyzstan or are you planning to return to Azerbaijan?
- I will be where they will be happy to see me. So, I need to know how important I am to the team that wants me. Time will tell.
