The head coach of FC Krasnodar, **Murad Musaev**, has been named the best coach in the Russian Premier League for October 2025, according to the league’s press service.

Under Musaev’s guidance, Krasnodar earned nine points from three matches in October, earning him the top spot in the RPL experts’ voting. Meanwhile, fans chose **Fabio Celestini** from CSKA as their favorite coach of the month, while TV analysts voted for **Mikhail Galaktionov** from Lokomotiv.

The winner in this category is determined through three rounds of voting, but in the event of differing results, the experts’ votes from the RPL take precedence. Thus, the award for October went to Musaev.
