MOSCOW, April 5, Sergey Pogrebnyak. Former owner of Spartak Moscow Andrey Chervichenko believes that the German management team in the capital's Lokomotiv was a foreign body for the club. On Monday, Lokomotiv announced the appointment of Zaur Khapov as the team's head coach. On Tuesday, it became known that Lars Kornetka, head of sports and development of railway workers, is leaving his post. The German specialist was appointed to this position at the end of November 2021 after the departure of his compatriot Ralf Rangnick to the English Manchester United. The tasks of the head of sports and development will fall under the responsibility of the sports director of Lokomotiv, Thomas Zorn. «The faster this whole team leaves Lokomotiv, the faster the club will recover. I don’t really understand why the choice between Khapov and Dmitry Loskov fell on the first These are some internal things. But this whole German management team, in my opinion, was a foreign body for the club,» Chervichenko said. Because of this, all movements and intrigues appear. And soon there will be a new transfer window. The key question is who will sit on the distribution,» Chervichenko added.
