MOSCOW, December 23, Oleg Bogatov. Management of the Moscow football club “Spartak” again stepped on a rake by inviting the Portuguese Tomas Amaral to the post of sports director; this is an absolutely wrong vector of development, said ex-general director of “Rostov” Yuri Belous.
On Friday it became known about the appointment of a specialist who came from the Portuguese Benfica to a post at Spartak. The functionary will begin work on January 1, 2024. Briton Paul Ashworth, who currently holds this position, will be transferred to the post of technical director.
“»The Portuguese Amaral previously worked in a European club, but this is the wrong path that Spartak is taking. The sports director must not only understand foreign football players, but also, first of all, be fully involved in the entire sports vertical of the club. Including the academy, and selection, including the search for Russian young football players. Spartak is once again stepping on this rake. If this specialist took a position in a foreign department and was focused on selection, then this would be normal. But the sports director is a different story “I don’t see any prospects, this is an absolutely wrong path that Spartak is taking,” said Belous.
The “Red-Whites” have scored 30 points in 18 matches of the Russian championship and are in fifth place in the standings. The gap from the leader «Krasnodar» has eight points.
