ARMENIAN FFA BOSS COMMENTS ON REMARKS BY DIMITRY SELUK
April 3
FFA President Mr. Ruben Hayrapetyan commented on the recent interview
given by Dimitry Seluk to the NEWS.am Sport correspondent and directed
to him personally.
I have repeatedly declared that for the sake of the development
of Armenian football I am ready to collaborate with persons or
organizations that want and are able to contribute to the progress
of Armenian football. However, in the given circumstances how can
he turn to me for cooperation when at the same time he is trying
to criticize a person who has done and is doing everything possible
for the advancement of Armenian football and for whom the success of
Armenian football is above any personal interests? One should either
be blind not to notice this or be totally unaware of football reality
not to know the mentioned, or ~E you can judge yourself. How can a
person who finds his being in football, often at the expenses of the
players, judge people who make personal investments for the progression
of football and do not save anything for the well being of the players.
My words concern the well known businessmen Oleg Lazarian and
Suleyman Kerimov. While the first has undeniable contribution in the
development of Ukrainian, Russian and Armenian football, Suleyman
Kerimov gives his efforts for the progression of Dagestanian football,
with this helping the rise of Russian football to a completely new
level. Finally, how can I cooperate with a person who first declares
to be Henrikh Mkhitaryan~Rs agent even never being in this role, and
then announces that he has transferred Aras Ozbilis to FC Kuban, whilst
I have personally asked Oleg Lazarian to buy the transfer rights of
Aras and talked to Aras and encouraged him to move to FC Kuban.
A person with a similar behavior cannot even have anything to do with
me, let alone cooperate.
Taking into consideration all the above-mentioned, I would ask Mr.
Seluk not to interfere in Armenian football and save Armenian football
players from his so called ~Swars~T. They have more important things
to do, i.e. - playing football.
