"Our preparations for the upcoming season are going according to plan. We are trying to fulfill the tasks set by the coaches. Hopefully, we will be ready by the first match of the championship."
According to Idman.biz, these words were said by "Sumgayit" player Rauf Rustamli in an interview with Sport24.az.
The midfielder, who is officially contracted to "Sabah" and joined "Sumgayit" on loan this summer, spoke about the team's goals for the new season: "I’m getting opportunities in the friendly matches and trying to show myself in a good light. Our head coach Sasa Ilic and I often talk. He explains in detail what I did right or wrong, and I try to implement his instructions. In the 2025/26 football season, 'Sumgayit' will fight for top positions. We will do everything as a team to achieve that. We want to make our fans happy with attractive play and good results."
Rauf Rustamli, a product of Gabala's academy, has also played for "Sabah" and "Shamakhi" during his career.
