Famous Kazakh football specialist Bulat Esmagambetov shared his opinion with Sports.kz about why the Kazakh midfielder Baktier Zainutdinov receives virtually no playing time in Turkish “Besiktas”.
— It seems to me that Zainutdinov’s problem is that universal players are not in demand in Europe now. Nowadays, highly specialized football players are in demand. The selection service of clubs works exactly like this. Now it will be difficult for Baktier to move to a more top club. It may be worth taking two steps back before taking a big step forward. In winter, he should go on loan and, one might say, start his career again,” the specialist said.
