Joaquín Caparrós: I would like to see more Armenian players in our teams

Armenian national football team head coach Joaquín Caparrós, who is not able to come to Armenia because of closed borders, is watching Armenian Premier League matches on TV.

Speaking to the Football Federation of Armenia, the coach shared his impressions of Round 18 of the Armenian Premier League.

“The players are not in a good fit because of this pause. The lack of playing rythm and practice is the reason they are not as competitive as they can be. The more they play, the more playing conditions will come back,” Caparrós said.

“I liked FC Ararat-Armenia most of all. It’s not surpirsing, as they are reigning champions. Anyway, I would be happier, if more Armenian players play in our clubs, which will make the selection for Armenian national team easier. We must watch more games, preferably from the stadium, in order to have a better understanding about the level of players,” he added.
