President of the Russian Football Union Alexander Dyukov discussed the development of a Russian equivalent to the FIFA football simulator in a conversation with "Sport-Express".
“As far as I know, work is underway to create a football simulator. When can we expect a demo version? FIFA was created and developed over many years. It will take some time. Probably, it is impossible to achieve this within a year. It will take several years. But I have no doubt that the simulator will appear,” Dyukov told “Sport-Express”.
Earlier, former captain of the Russian national team and member of the board of Zenit Andrey Arshavin proposed the creation of a Russian football simulator. He was also supported by former Minister of Sports of the Russian Federation Oleg Matytsin.
