Konstantin Genich and Nobel Arustamyan assessed the likelihood that Krasnodar captain Eduard Spertsyan would transfer to Inter Milan in the winter transfer window. Arustamyan stated that he does not think club owner Galitsky will sell Spertsyan in the winter, because there are 10 rounds left in the championship and a chance to win it. Arustamyan also noted that Galitsky will not sell Spertsyan in the winter for €10 million or €12 million, but only for very large sums. Genich noted that the only exception could be a super offer for Eduard Spertsyan from a club such as Inter Milan. He added that the price will not be lower than that of Matvey Safonov.

According to Armenian media reports, Internazionale are interested in Eduard Spertsyan and have taken initial steps to secure his transfer from Russia. A transfer fee of 25 million euros is required because Spertsyan's contract is valid until mid-2029. The transfer is likely to occur in the summer, and Spertsyan is viewed as a successor to Henrikh Mkhitaryan, as Mkhitaryan's contract is expiring.

A representative of Inter Milan's press service stated that the club is not interested in Eduard Spertsyan. However, previous media reports suggested that Inter Milan has been monitoring the 24-year-old Armenian's performances and plans to make an offer to Krasnodar during the summer transfer window. The club's management also consulted with Armenian midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan regarding the potential signing of Spertsyan.
