Kanchelskis Praises Safonov and Urges Him to Move to Europe

Former Manchester City and Manchester United player Andrey Kanchelskis, in an interview with Euro-Football.Ru, commented on Matvey Safonov’s performances in 2025. This was reported by euro-football.rureports.

According to Kanchelskis, Safonov is currently one of the goalkeepers who sets an example for all Russian footballers. He stressed that if players have a chance to test themselves in Europe, they should not miss it, and they can always return later.

Recall that on December 17, PSG defeated Flamengo in the 2025 Intercontinental Cup final. In the post-match penalty shootout, Safonov saved four consecutive kicks, becoming the first goalkeeper in history to achieve such a feat in FIFA-sanctioned tournaments.
