MOSCOW, February 20 Moscow football club CSKA removed from the official website on Sunday the profile of the editor-in-chief of club television Ekaterina Kirilcheva. Kirilcheva is no longer listed in the section with the names of employees of the administrative staff of CSKA. In January, CSKA announced the transfer of Turkish midfielder Yusuf Yazici. After the announcement of the transfer, a comic video appeared on CSKA social networks about how the negotiations with the player allegedly took place. The video simulated the correspondence between the accounts of CSKA and Yazici on Instagram: CSKA persuades Yazici to sign a contract for several hours, but the player does not respond to messages, then the army club makes a «knight's move» and, as an argument for the transition, tells the Turk that in Russia «a lot of Natasha», after which Yazydzhi immediately replies that «it will be in 5 minutes.» Fans on social networks reacted with indignation to such humor, believing that such an attitude offends Russian girls, since there is a common stereotype associated with the name Natasha. The video began to be actively discussed on the Internet and in the public space. CSKA later removed the video from social networks, and Kirilcheva herself apologized, noting that the plot of the video was «invented by her in the face of time pressure and turned out to be unsuccessful and inappropriate.»
