Despite his young age, Yusif Hasanov, the goalkeeper of “Turan Tovuz” U-16 team, stands out from his peers. The 185 cm tall goalkeeper has attracted the attention of Russian and Turkish clubs since a young age.
Representatives of several clubs also shared their opinions about the goalkeeper, whom the “Turan” academy also has high hopes for in the future. “Football-plus.az” presents these opinions.
Elçin Rzazadə, Goalkeeper Coordinator of “Gabala” Academy:
“Yusif Hasanov stood out with his talent even when he was in our academy. He is truly a very potential goalkeeper. If he works hard, we can see him in bigger clubs.”
Ülfət Mədətov, Coordinator of “Tovuz Turan” Academy:
“Yes, Yusif Hasanov currently defends the honor of our academy’s lower age groups. He joined us in December. I can say that Yusif trains with the U-17 and reserve teams. The adaptation process to our team is already underway. In all cases, I wish him success.”
Aqil Məmmədov, Goalkeeper Coordinator of “Neftçi” Academy:
“Mashallah, Yusif is very well-behaved and potential. His goalkeeper performance shows that he will be a very good goalkeeper in the future. His physical indicators are at a very high level. There are very few goalkeepers in the country with such physical indicators at this age. Of course, if there are offers from European clubs, we can only be happy about it.”
