For his first season outside Russia, Matvey Safonov experienced a complicated start to exercise, notably marked by his marital concerns in Russia. Separated from his wife, Safonov owed around € 620,000 in alimony to the latter. Since then, things seem to have managed. Safonov, who has just won the Champions League with PSG, would have paid for his debt according to Sport-Express.
“”I would like to emphasize that the debt of 60 million was calculated taking into account the fact that Anastasia, after having cheated Matvey, asked him to transfer the apartment to his daughter as a support. Matvey hoped to settle his debts even before the official dissolution of his marriage to Anastasia, but Anastasia acted dishonest and now affirms that there has been no agreement. However, to date, after payment of all debts, arrests and other security measures against him have not been lifted. Matvey, as an honest person and attentive father, will never take her child's money. After the approval of the court decision by the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation, we decided to repay the accumulated alimony debt. In particular to facilitate the trips of Matvey, not only abroad, but also in Russia“Said his lawyer Andreï Krioutchkov.
