MOSCOW, Sep 4, Anatoly Samokhvalov. Honored coach of Russia in figure skating Elena Buyanova said in an interview that she would have started cooperation with European champion Alena Kostornaya at the end of 2020 if she had contacted her herself, and not through coach Sergei Rozanov. In May 2021, Buyanova announced that in December 2020, the desire to cooperate with it was expressed by Rozanov, who at that time worked with Kostorna at the Evgeni Plushenko Academy. Kostornaya moved to Buyanova in March 2022 from the group of Eteri Tutberidze. “Yes,” Buyanova answered the question if Rozanov wanted to go to her from Plushenko along with Kostorna. “It was right after the Russian Championship (held in December 2020).”
