Response from Galatasaray Player Aleksey Batrakov's Agent to Barcelona Claims

Vladimir Kuzmichev, the agent of 21-year-old young football player Aleksey Batrakov playing for Galatasaray, announced that claims regarding his player's transfer to Barcelona do not reflect the truth. Kuzmichev stated that Batrakov's primary goals are to succeed at Galatasaray, become one of the team's leaders, and experience a Turkish championship.

Remarkable assessments regarding Galatasaray's young midfielder Aleksey Batrakov came from his agent, Vladimir Kuzmichev. Evaluating the news regarding the Catalan club's interest that came to the agenda before the Barcelona match, Kuzmichev stated that he thinks these claims were made up by journalists. He conveyed that clubs following Batrakov will observe the player's performance in his new league and tangible interest could come to the agenda a year later.

Kuzmichev described the player's first match in the Champions League as a solid performance, emphasizing that since he will not be evaluated under the Russian player status, his transfer to countries like England or Germany is now easier. Stating that Batrakov aims to be a leading player at Galatasaray in the short term, contribute to the club, and become the Turkish champion, the agent expressed that the player has adapted to the team quickly and has started to display a maturity similar to his performance during the Lokomotiv period.
