Astakhov: In terms of implementation, this is very difficult and no one can provide a prediction

Khimki Basketball Club is ready to end the Euroleague season, but this scenery will be difficult to achieve for a variety of reasons, said Pavel Astakhov, general manager of the Moscow Region team.

“We are in constant contact with Euroleague by videoconference. They understand the status of each club. We have all the players on self-isolation, home training for those who can. If the season continues, everyone will come back. But, once again, it is not clear how this could happen, because the entry of foreigners into Russia is suspended for an unknown period.

Of course, we miss basket very much. If all sanitary and epidemiological standards are respected in the place chosen by Euroleague, we would all be happy to end the season.

Of course, in terms of implementation, this is very difficult and no one can provide a prediction. The whole situation is very complicated, because quarantine still exists in many countries. As far as I understand, there is a problem with American players, who will find it difficult to leave the United States. It is still difficult to think of anything, “said Astakhov to R-Sport.
