Enough time for proper preparation
He now has five weeks to prepare the team for the new season, said Farke. “A big advantage is of course that the Russian league won’t start again until the end of February.” That is basically enough for a complete preparation.
FK Krasnodar is currently fifth in the Russian league after 18 matchdays with 29 points. Farke will meet former Bundesliga striker Jhon Cordoba at the club. The first opponent this year is Lokomotiv Moscow on February 25th, which also has a German trainer in Markus Gisdol.
