"Bunyodkor got in touch an hour before the closing of the transfer window, but did not make it" - our legionnaire who returned from Qatar is "offside"...

Bakhtiyor Kasimov, who played as a legionnaire in Qatar, returned to our country. The goal was to temporarily continue the activity in the Super League.

It was expected that he would sign a contract with a club before the transfer window closed in our country. That's why there were clubs who wanted to see Bakhtiyor in their ranks. However, in the end it didn't happen like that and Kasimov was offside.

- Bakhtiyor, the last time we talked with you, you said that you are returning to our Super League after leaving Qatar. Because then there were offers for your service from our clubs. However, we did not see you at any club until the transfer window closed in our championship. what happened

- Yes, I had plans to return to Uzbekistan. When I gave an interview, I said that I wanted to return to our country. In fact, I had to sign a new contract with my club in Qatar on July 15. But then the Asian limit was removed, and my return from there was delayed. I returned to Uzbekistan on July 24. I had options from our Super League teams in front of me. However, due to some reasons, the agreement with them did not come to an end.

- Rumors spread that you were transferred to Bunyodkor just a few hours before the closing of the transfer window...

- Yes, there was also the Bunyodkor option. They contacted me one hour before the closing of the transfer window. Then they failed. It seems that Bunyodkor also made a decision at the end of waiting. I got a call that night at 23:00. But they did not have time to prepare and formalize the contract.

- It is always unpleasant for a player to be without a team and practice. Doesn't it affect you negatively?

- True, it has a temporary effect. But the agents are working. God willing, I will move to a new club in the next few days. I will play as a legionnaire again. The championship will start in the Arab countries at the end of August. There, the transfer window is open until September.

- Negotiations in this regard are in full swing. Which country's clubs are mainly interested?

- Negotiations are going on mainly with the teams of the first division of the Arab championships.

- Which country exactly?

- Qatar, Saudi Arabia...

- So you can return to Qatar again?

- Yes, it is.

- Doesn't the fact that you haven't appeared in any club of the Super League affect your mood?

- I had a desire to play in Uzbekistan until winter. But the negotiations are not over yet! That's why it didn't seem like it. The clubs I was interested in contacted at the beginning of July. But they waited for the Qataris. As a result, our teams did not want to take risks. As for me, I waited for my team in Qatar. They should have given the contract on July 15. But the Qataris gave me a clear answer on July 17. As a result, I lost track of time.

- Don't you regret after these actions?

- No, why? Everything is fine. The important thing is that we are healthy. This fat is healthy competition.
