MOSCOW, Mar 18 Slovenian Celje defender Grigory Morozov spoke about the attitude to Russian football players in Europe.» For a long time I had a fear of moving to Europe. But at the same time, I really wanted to try myself abroad and now I am immensely happy about it — this is a step forward for my career. I was lucky that they called me here, because «I have to admit, Russian football players are not expected abroad, despite our ambitions. In Europe, there is no idea that a Russian player can come and strengthen a team from the top 5, top 6 championships. I wanted to play in Croatia, but even there there are personnel. Russian football players have high expectations and requirements, so they are not listed here, «quotes the Match TV defender. Morozov noted that the situation could change if more Russian football players move to European clubs and prove themselves, but added, that many of the players do not want to zvat on less favorable terms.
