"In fact, there were several offers. But Sabail's project, head coach Elvin Mammadov's attitude towards me, and the trust shown by the management were decisive in my decision. After negotiations with the club, I became convinced that I would be useful here. Because Sabail's goals coincide with my personal goals."
Idman.biz reports that Sabayil Baghirov, the new transfer of Sabail, said this in his statement to the futbolinfo.az website.
The 30-year-old defender spoke about the team's upcoming goals: "My main goal is to provide maximum benefit to the team, show leadership on the field and contribute to the club's return to the Premier League. With my performance, I will try to be one of the players who attract attention both within the team and in the championship. I will justify the trust shown in me by Elvin muallim and the management, and we will fight for the championship. I am confident that we will achieve our goal with this belief and unity. I like to take responsibility on the field and I gladly accept the role of leader. My main goal is stability, perseverance and performances that will move the team forward."
Baghirov also touched upon his separation from Shamakhi: "Football is a moving field and sometimes it is natural to part ways. We separated from Shamakhi by mutual agreement. The team's fans and the city are great. I made good friends there and the city will always remain unforgettable for me. I have truly valuable memories. I am grateful for my time there, but a new chapter has already begun and my attention is fully on Sabail."
