“Everything is fine, the recovery is going according to plan, it’s been four months already. I started working with the ball in my native Tula team, it’s a very comfortable situation. I exercise physically every day, I feel good, but I can not accelerate the knee’s healing process, it takes time. I am close to 100%, I started jumping, running, moving, even falling, but all at a gradual pace. But I still cannot play at a competitive level.
We talked with Vadim Pankov and said I was not ready. Naturally, I would really like to help the Russian team, but at the moment it’s simply impossible, I’m rooting for the girls, for the team, I wish them great success and I believe that our hopes and plans will be embodied in the World Championship medal.”
