Former national team player Evgeny Averchenko shared his thoughts with Sports.kz on which Kazakhstani footballers are closest to joining top clubs in Europe.
— Dastan Satpaev from "Kairat" might make a breakthrough, or perhaps Islam Chesnokov will move to a European league, or someone else entirely. Baktiyer Zainutdinov is playing in the Turkish league for the renowned "Besiktas." Turkey has a quite competitive European league. There are many nuances to consider in this regard; a lot depends on the football agents who represent their players. However, a great deal also relies on the players themselves. You can move to another league, but will you be able to make your mark there? That’s the question, — said the specialist.
