MOSCOW, June 4, Pavel Levkovich. Head coach of the Moscow football club Spartak Paolo Vanoli and the sports director of the team, Luca Cattani, remained in Russia and continue to work, despite pressure from the Italian embassy, said the chairman of the board of directors of the red-whites, Leonid Fedun. Cattani joined Spartak in December, having previously worked in the French «Paris Saint-Germain» for five seasons. Vanoli in December replaced the head coach of the «red-white» Portuguese Ruy Vitoria. «Many thanks to Cattani for the work he did. The man was not afraid to exchange a warm and very comfortable place in Paris, in the PSG world club, for a giant challenge in Spartak. Despite pressure from the Italian embassy, he and Paolo Vanoli stayed in Russia, continue to work with us,» Fedun said during a ceremony marking the centenary of Spartak. «I'm proud of our team. We are the best club of Russia in terms of organization, although they like to blame us very much. Believe me, there is no such organization in any club in Russia, «added Fedun.
