Do we expect Konstantin to play in the Champions League as well?
Konstantin Tyukavin is one of the top stars of the RPL. The 22-year-old striker led Dynamo Moscow last season, scoring 15 goals and providing nine assists. It was not possible to reach the RPL gold. But Tyukavin was still recognized as the best football player of the season. And after Arsen Zakharyan, whom Dynamo sold to Real Sociedad in 2023, Tyukavin is the next candidate to move to Europe.
In July, “Championship” spoke with Tyukavin:

At the same time, Konstantin is on the shortlist of one of the clubs participating in the Champions League. Agent Dmitry Cheltsov came to the editorial office of the Championship and in the Injustice Premier League podcast he spoke about a team that is interested in Tyukavin:
“I know that Tyukavin is on the waiting list at Lille, the second club in France. They have a problem with Jonathan David, a big star valued at 50 million euros. He has one year left on his contract and Lille worked hard to sell him this summer. But it didn’t work out. Or they didn’t want to. He [Дэвид] He can leave as a free agent. And it is a pain for Lille to give up their main asset for 0. If David leaves, Tyukavin will be there [в шорт-листе «Лилля»] “Yes. They know him there, but of course he is not number one.”

What about the amount of the possible transaction? Cheltsov noted that the amount of compensation in Tyukavin’s contract for European clubs is 20 million euros, but if Lille offers Dynamo 15 million euros + 3-4 million euros in bonuses, then negotiations are quite realistic.
This season, Tyukavin has scored just one goal and provided one assist in eight matches. But Konstantin is acting usefully, creating chances for himself and his partners. This is how the Dynamo striker’s statistics will improve. And, most likely, in the summer of 2025, Lille will contact the Moscow club about Tyukavin.
