"We have already played 3 test matches. Everything is going according to the preparation plan." This was stated by Sabuhi Safiyarli, the sports director of "Gabala", in his statement to Sport24.az.
The club official spoke about the goals of "Gabala", which returned to the elite, for the next season:
"The head coach expressed his satisfaction with the team's performance and said that they are performing better from game to game. But it cannot be said that the team is fully ready. Because there will be transfers. We are thinking of strengthening with 3-4 players. Negotiations are underway. Most likely, we will come to an agreement with legionnaires. After their transfer, the team can be considered ready. Work is still ongoing. We are waiting for the start of the championship. As we always said, we will try to play football worthy of the name of "Gabala". We can set a goal for ourselves after the team is fully formed and after looking at the situation of the legionnaires."
It should be noted that in the last test match, the "red-blacks" won against "Sumgayit" with a score of 1:0. Before that, the students of Kakhaber Tskhadadze disappointed "Shamakhi" (2:1) and "Kapaz" (2:0).
