to recruit russian youth and only one foreigner was examined for a stamp meanwhile the clubs can use the draft to protect blair is that went through their own youth systems and that's what happened in the second big you get a shy if. i'm very glad i was picked by my own team though it's always been a dream to play in my hometown because you also rounded by the things you love and of course the fans support you the draft still seems more like an experiment but the dividends are being picky as the club's been more attention to the youth systems and invest money in them and for many young players the draft is now becoming a milestone in their careers and same but out of thirteen. and for the. champions league final twelve still now. this bonus and i think.
