- What are the weaknesses?

- Since they play attacking football, there are certain gaps in defense and are vulnerable to counter-attacks.

- What information do you have about the Azerbaijani champion Qarabag who will play with them in the European League playoffs?

- I know Qarabag. Recently, they have participated in European competitions for many times. I don't think it's easy to beat them at home.

- Have you watched any performance of Aghdam club in the European Cup?

- I haven't watched their games, but I know about the results. I know they perform well at home. I am even aware that Bayer has difficulty in defeating Qarabag in Azerbaijan.

- What are the chances of Qarabag winning the game between these teams?

- The Azerbaijani champion has players who played in Portugal. Which of them do you know?

- Yes, I know some of them. For example, I played against Juninho Olavio and I know he is a very good striker. In general, I can say that they are all good football players.

- I haven't got any offer so far, but of course I am open to anything. If something comes up in the future, I will consider for sure.
