MOSCOW, September 7 Head coach of the Russian national football team Valery Karpin told reporters that the Russian Football Union had not negotiated a contract extension with him. «In general, there have been no talks yet, let's see how it all develops further. I think that after the November matches we will talk about the future headquarters. This worries me less, there are more relevant concerns. The RFU went to meet the entire coaching staff, all teams, and our status does not affect me now. We are working, the load is not so big, and I don’t see any problems if this continues. The decision is not mine, «said Karpin at a press conference. Karpin has been leading the Russian national team since July 2021. The contract of the 53-year-old specialist is calculated until the end of 2022. Earlier, FIFA and UEFA published a joint statement according to which Russian teams and clubs were suspended from participation in all international competitions for an indefinite period.
