Yakovlev leaves “Krylya Sovetov”. He has obtained the necessary licenses, but the club needs a new bookmaker. Yakovlev will no longer serve as the deputy governor of Krylya Sovetov. Despite successfully maintaining his status in the elite ranks of Russian football, the strategic plan agreed upon by Kumin and Fedorishchev originally envisioned that Dmitri Yakovlev would complete the licensing process, after which he would leave the Samara-based club. To be eligible for the 2026/27 season, it is crucial to sign a new agreement with a bookmaking company. The current contract with Fonbet expires in mid-June, and the deadline to conclude a deal with a new partner is at the beginning of July. It’s worth noting that the RFSC was able to obtain the license on the first attempt, unlike last year, when the process took until the end of May. However, the license was granted under strict conditions: the club’s stable funding depends on having a new bookmaking sponsor. Experts estimate that the chances of Yakovlev staying with Krylya Sovetov are minimal. Currently, he has a working day as deputy governor. After that, he will definitely leave Samara. A change in the management team in the club is inevitable, reports Karp.
