MOSCOW, March 14 Head coach of the Russian national football team Valery Karpin believes that the St. Petersburg Zenit striker Artem Dzyuba is a good football player who can help the team, said the specialist’s wife Daria Karpina on the Without Water YouTube channel. Dzyuba last played in the Russian national team at Euro 2020, where he scored one of two goals teams in the tournament. In October, the athlete withdrew from the team gathering before the qualifying matches against Slovakia and Slovenia for the 2022 World Cup, citing poor form. Karpin at the end of October did not include the 33-year-old striker in the preliminary list of players called up for the November qualifying games with the national teams of Cyprus and Croatia. In December, the striker said that he was not against taking a step towards Karpin — later Dziuba informed the coach that he was ready to play for the national team. they said. And not even in the format of the national team: even when Dzyuba was on loan at Arsenal, there was talk that he could go to Rostov, just in time for Valera. I remember asking: is it possible that he is coming to you Valera said: Yes, he is a good footballer, able to help. What does it have to do with it personally? I consider my husband a professional, because he said a long time ago that he would take Dziuba, because it is a question of the interests of the club. In the national team, then about the same thing happened Valera still met with Artem, but he didn’t call him to the first training camp, because Dzyuba was out of shape. Apparently (Dzyuba was offended by this), because when he was called to the second training camp, he said: «And now I I don’t want to,” Karpina said. Also Karpina doba Vila that she does not discuss with her husband either Dziuba or the former head coach of the national team Stanislav Cherchesov.
