Real Salt Lake: We are hopeful Yura Movsisyan transfer will take place soon

Real Salt Lake (RSL) Head Coach Jeff Cassar said Armenia national squad and FC Spartak Moscow (Russia) forward Yura Movsisyan is close to returning to this US club, which plays in Major League Soccer (MLS).

Earlier, rumors were circulating that the parties had agreed on the transfer of the 28-year-old Armenia international.

“I would say where there’s smoke there’s fire,” Cassar told SBIsoccer. “We’re in discussions, and we’re hopeful that something is going to be announced, but you never know quite until that happens.

“I think he’s [i.e. Movsisyan] powerful, he’s dynamic, he can run the channels, and score.” 

Yura Movsisyan played for RSL between 2007 and 2009. Subsequently, he continued his professional career at Randers FC (Denmark), and FC Krasnodar (Russia). 

He plays for Spartak Moscow since 2013.
