Russian goalkeeper Ivan Lomaev is in Sochi awaiting a decision on a contract with the club. A source familiar with the situation informed Championat that the parties are in negotiations, but the number of goalkeepers currently at the team is an obstacle to the transfer. The 26-year-old player, who left Krylia Sovetov in June, was previously linked with other clubs over the summer. Information had appeared that Lomaev had agreed on contract terms with AEL Larissa, but the transfer did not go through. It was also later reported that he might return to Krylia Sovetov.
