Vladimir Kuzmichev, the agent and manager for Antalyaspor's 32-year-old Russian defender Georgiy Dzhikiya, has reported that the player wishes to return to Spartak Moskva, where he played between 2017 and 2024. Kuzmichev explained that Spartak is a special club for Dzhikiya because it believed in him when he arrived from a smaller team, gave him a chance, and later made him captain. Kuzmichev said that if a real opportunity to return to contribute rather than for nostalgic reasons arises, Dzhikiya will definitely take it, as it is a conscious desire to finish his career where he established himself. Dzhikiya, who joined the Turkish club in July 2025, is under contract until June 2027 and has made 12 appearances in the Süper Lig this season, scoring two goals. The defender has 44 caps for Russia and a current market value of €1.80m, according to Transfermarkt.
