Azerbaijani Football Cup Winner Club to Experience Changes

Azerbaijan, Baku, 26 May / Trend News corr R. Ergun/ Khazar-Lankaran, the club of Azerbaijan's football premier league, has problems with full-back and forward. "Preparation for UEFA Cup has commenced. We plan to make a range of changes in the team. Given the problems with forward and full-back, we decided to purchase new players," chief coach of the club Agasalim Mirjavadov said to Trend News on 26 May.

On 24 May Khazar-Lankaran beat Inter, 2:0, during the final match of the competition at the Tofig Bahramov stadium and second time won the Cup.

According to Mirjavadov, the rumours that he may pass to Inter are false. "My contract with Khazar-Lankaran is intended not for a year or two but for a longer period. I am satisfied with everything here. The main thing is that there is a good mutual understanding between me and the administration of the club. I am well aware of what they want," he said.

The experienced coach is considered to be the most titled specialist in Azerbaijan. He many times won championships and cups in Azerbaijan with clubs Shamkir, Neftchi and Khazar-Lankaran. It was he under whose direction Neftchi and Khazar-Lankaran won the Confederation Cup.

Mirjavadov said that he had already drawn up the list of the football players to leave the club as soon as the season is over.

As to the player who scored final two goals to the Inter gates - Brazilian Junior Osvaldo, he said that Osvaldo had suffered an injury and would not be able to play during four months.
