While the Russian media have mentioned a possible release clause of 16 million euros, the price to pay should be a little higher. Member of the board of directors of Cheminots, Valery Filatov spoke in favor Match TV on the price that would have to be paid for the Russian international (10 caps, 3 goals): “the sum should make it possible to acquire a player of similar caliber.

Batrakov would therefore need at least 20 million euros to recruit a good player.»
