“My feet will no longer be in the KHL”: Swedish hockey player about leaving CSKA

MOSCOW, May 3. Former CSKA Moscow striker Lukas Wallmark said in an interview with SVT that he will never return to the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL). The Swedish player terminated the contract with the Russian team in early March. He paid the club compensation in accordance with the requirements of the regulations. The sports rights to the hockey player will be assigned to CSKA until 2023. «I had a family at home in Sweden who did not sleep. I just wanted to leave here. When I talked to the club, they heard me that I did not want to stay. I no longer was the old Lucas. Everything has changed. (Termination of the contract) dealt a serious financial blow. But I felt that I did not want to be a part of it. My feet will no longer be there. I can say that, «said Wallmark. The Swedish striker moved to CSKA in the summer 2021. He took part in 33 KHL games, in which he scored 19 points (8 goals + 11 assists).
