Batrakov Scores, Foreign Clubs Start Tracking Him

Batrakov joined the team as a closed-box striker but adapted over time and improved his performance. The 21-year-old forward drew attention with the goals he scored against Barcelona and Lille. The fight he showed in every match also earned applause from the fans.

His performances have grown interest across Europe. From England, Newcastle, Tottenham and Brighton, and from France, Paris FC and Monaco, are closely following the player's transfer situation. These clubs are often mentioned in the foreign press.

A notable development has also emerged around the player. While Batrakov has been given the nickname "New Mertens," posts by his wife Irina Podshibyakina have reminded people of Mertens' wife Katrin Kerkhofs. Podshibyakina, who attends almost all of the away matches, has started being referred to as the "new sister-in-law" on social media.
