Our insider on the mini-restructuring of the Moscow team.
With the end of the season in the RPL, the contracts of some players also end. In some clubs no decisions have been made yet, but, for example, Lokomotiv has already decided everything itself. In the summer, after their contracts expire, four notable players will leave the team at once: Artyom Dzyuba, Stanislav Magkeev, Marinato Guilherme and Daniil Khudyakov. Below is a detailed analysis of the reasons for each person’s departure.
Transfers are also approaching in Europe:

The story of Lokomotiv and Dziuba ends as sadly as it began. According to the terms of the contract, Artyom’s agreement with the club was automatically extended if the striker scored 10 effective actions in the RPL. And in the first part of the season everything went well: Dzyuba eliminated seven. But during the winter, the striker missed two preseason training camps, and in the spring Mikhail Galaktionov became disappointed in him. A week ago, Dziuba even rejected the automatic extension in the hopes that it would help him return to the roster. But nothing can be changed: there will be no extension of the contract.
Here you can help Dziuba decide what to do next:

What should Artyom Dzyuba do next in his career?
Stanislav Magkeev

The situation with Magkeev is quite sad. Almost a year ago, Stanislav broke his crosses for the second time in his career. Before this injury, he was Lokomotiv’s main player, then he had a long recovery and this year he returned to the general group at the winter training camp. There were six months left until the end of the contract and Magkeev, according to our information, had the option of going to Paris NN, where he could play. But Mikhail Galaktionov did not let the defender go, arguing that the team needed Magkeev. However, in the spring he never took the field and the club did not offer him a new contract. Therefore, his paths diverge.

The young goalkeeper quickly broke into Lokomotiv’s main team under German leadership, but after a change of direction he lost his place in the starting eleven. And after the arrival of Ilya Lantratov, he found himself completely in reserve, losing the competition, in the opinion of the coaching staff, also to Marinato Guilherme. The reasons for Khudyakov’s departure from the club were mentioned by the footballer’s agent Vadim Shpinev in a recent interview with “Championship”:
“Daniil rejected the club’s humiliating offer to renew his contract. They offered us to extend the contract on the same terms and only for one year, but the guy did not agree. With a high probability, Khudyakov will leave Lokomotiv as a free agent. The club’s sports department contacts the player and expresses his interest in reconsidering the relationship. But we did not receive a real offer with new conditions.
I work in different directions, we are considering Europe. This is mainly Türkiye, because Russian footballers now have more chances to go there. It is possible to go to other European countries, but it is more difficult, but Dani still does not have the same status. The boy needs to play, to experience fair competition. And not when you work hard, you show yourself well during a weekly cycle, but your favorite goalkeeper always starts.”

The main legend of the current Lokomotiv is already 38 years old. Marinato plays only in the Cup, but in the summer Anton Mitryushkin will rise to the number two position. Lokomotiv’s decision not to renew Guilherme’s contract seems logical. At the same time, according to our information, Marinato will be offered a position in the club, but the goalkeeper himself wants to play more. According to our sources, Khimki and several clubs in Europe are considering inviting him.
