Former coach of Spartak and Orenburg, **[Vladimir Slishkovich](https://www.championat.com/tags/40904-vladimir-slishkovich/)**, shared his thoughts on Lokomotiv midfielder **Alexey Batrakov** and his potential in European football. He believes that the young Russian player may not be well-suited for the English Premier League. According to Slishkovich, Batrakov would likely shine in Spain’s La Liga.

“If Batrakov were to receive offers from top leagues right now, I feel he would be more stylistically suited for Spain. I don’t think Alexey is physically cut out for the EPL. When the ball is at Batrakov’s feet, he always has the capability to come up with something unexpected,” Slishkovich stated in the latest episode of the Championship podcast titled “Premiere League of Injustice.”
