Konstantin Dzyuba, the sporting director for Rubin Kazan, commented on the potential transfer fee for the 27-year-old Albanian forward Mirlind Daku, suggesting that for interested parties such as Spartak and Fiorentina, the price would exceed €8 million. According to Sport24, Dzyuba stated with a laugh that the fee would definitely not be €8 million. He also revealed that interest in the player came from more clubs than just Fiorentina and that this attention continued almost until the transfer window closed. Daku's current contract with the Kazan club runs until the summer of 2029, and the Transfermarkt portal estimates his market value to be €10 million.
