Many coaches express surprise at the decision of sports federations to allow the registration of new foreign professionals in teams until the end of the winter transfer window, especially among clubs competing for the championship. They believe that such a step annuls the entire season and returns teams to a null mark before the start of the final stages of competitions.
One of the coaches pointed out his viewpoint in the following way: "The open window for the registration of new foreign players at this moment, federations, please, did not assess the aftermath. This creates imbalance and nullifies all efforts made by clubs throughout the season. Now we have a situation when everyone will start with a clean slate, when some are already in the exit to playoffs."
Many experts and coaches express concerns about the relative behavior of teams in connection with the opening of new opportunities for strengthening the roster.
