Actually, I planned to stay in Torpedo Nizhny Novgorod, where we had a good connection with Matt Ellison and Ryan Vesce. It seems that they were going to extend the contract with me, but there the leadership changed, and they refused me. This was a blow, but Minsk was a backup option, and there I initially experienced problems with adaptation.”
