"Futsal players coming to mini-football really has a negative effect on this type of sport. There are currently 6-7 teams in futsal. It's really sad."
This was said by Afran Ismayilov, a former football player of the Azerbaijan national team and Qarabag, who was a guest of the Idman.biz studio.
According to the veteran football player, the main reason for this is finance: "Finance is important for the championship to be more interesting and of better quality. Mini-football was able to create this. More than half of the best players in Azerbaijan are there. Fans are also interested in mini football. The participation of former members of the Azerbaijan national team also played a role in this. If licenses are obtained from FIFA and UEFA, I believe that there will be no way to stand in front of mini-football. Maybe he will get closer to big football."
It should be noted that the "Inter" club, where the former players of the Azerbaijan national team wear uniforms and is captained by Afran Ismayilov, ranked 8th with 7 points after 5 rounds in the Azerbaijan Minifootball League.
