The ice has moved! And a river of money started flowing into Russian football. If not so long ago one could feel more secure, receiving support from "Sibneft", now the army team was joined by a Muscovite, taking away a supporter from the Serie A giant.
According to the official club website, on March 22, Monday, an agreement was signed between the Moscow region government and the companies "Sfera" and "GNK Nafta-Moskva", providing financial assistance to the football club. Over six years, sponsors have committed to allocate $60 million. The money will reach the club already this year. The new sponsors promised that the Moscow footballers will receive 10 million this season out of the total amount.
In addition, according to some sources, it was expected that the club would be reformed into a joint-stock company. But representatives of the Moscow club, which is still a state institution, denied this information to the press.
