"I don't know when I will participate in the competitions yet, but I will definitely come back."
It was said by Olympic champion Hidayat Heydarov (73 kg), Idman.biz reports.
The winner of the Paris 2024 Summer Olympic Games gave an interview to the International Judo Federation (IJF) at the Grand Slam tournament in Abu Dhabi. Hidayat said that the recovery process has passed: "After months of training and competitions, it is necessary to recover. What happened in 2024 must be left behind. I cannot go out on the street to be recognized. Everyone wants to take pictures and get autographs. It is very exciting, but It's hard to do it. It goes without saying that I have good people around me. I get a lot of support from the Federation and Elnur Mammadli.
Hidayat won the world and European championships in 2024 along with the title of Olympic champion.
