The mother of junior figure skating champion **Elena Kostyleva**, **Irina**, stated that she is not in talks with the academy of two-time Olympic champion **Evgeni Plushenko** regarding any continuation of their collaboration.
“Are the negotiations no longer relevant, then? Of course not. What kind of negotiations can there be with a coach who has deliberately sabotaged the athlete? He stripped her of her programs, jumps, and even the title she rightfully deserves as a Candidate for Master of Sports,” Kostyleva wrote on her Telegram channel.
Earlier, Yana Rudkovskaya shared a video allegedly showing the figure skater’s mother hitting her daughter. This led to a public argument between the producer and the athlete’s mother.
