The Azerbaijan International believes that the Russian Premier League club can spend big time like English Premier League clubs: Manchester United and Manchester City
There is little arguing to the statement that Anzhi Makhachkala earned huge fame in a limited time period courtesy to expensive signings such as Samuel Eto’o, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roberto-Carlos-c31317, Lassana
Diarra and Lacina Traore respectively.
The mega rich Dagestani club made these land mark signings after Suleyman Kerimov became their president. The Russian billionaire convinced former Real Madrid coach, Guus Hiddink, to join him in the project and there has been significant
progress ever since.
The Wild-division are at the 2nd spot on the league table and are competing for the UEFA Europa League title on the European front.
They are likely to progress to the quarter finals of the competition after defeating http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Hannover-96-c39492 in the first-leg of the double legged European encounter 3-1 at Dynamo stadium (Makhachkala).
Granada CF midfielder, Rizvan Umarov, has lavished praise on the Makhachkala-based club, saying that he was flattered to know an interest from such a reputed Russian club which has made wonderful signings over the course of last
two years.
The Azerbaijan International went on to compare Anzhi with the likes of Manchester United and Manchester City, saying that the Russian outfit will reach the level of the English Premier League clubs in the near future.
"Yes, it's true. I am glad that they are interested in my services. It is a big chance for me to play at a higher level in my career. I think they are a strong team and are one of the leaders of Russian football at the moment.
I think that they will continue to develop and will rise on par with European giants such as Manchester City and Manchester United in next few years.”
“Financially, the club has no problems and they only buy quality players. Anzhi are the strongest clubs in Russia, well, that's my opinion," the 19-year-old was quoted as saying.
