Naumov believes Tiknizyan could succeed in La Liga

Former Lokomotiv Moscow president Nikolai Naumov has expressed his confidence in defender Nair Tiknizyan’s ability to perform well in Spain’s top football division, La Liga. This comes amid reports of interest from Spanish clubs in the Armenian player.

Naumov stated, “Nair is a strong footballer who could handle the Spanish championship. He’s truly a skilled player with good speed and a real football mind. If an offer comes that satisfies both him and Lokomotiv, it would be worth accepting.”

Tiknizyan has been with Lokomotiv Moscow since the summer of 2021. The 25-year-old defender has played 23 matches this season, scoring 2 goals and providing 1 assist. According to Transfermarkt, the player’s current market value is estimated at 6 million euros.

The former club president’s comments highlight Tiknizyan’s potential and suggest that a move to La Liga could be a positive step in the player’s career. It remains to be seen whether any concrete offers will materialize and if Lokomotiv Moscow would be willing to part with their talented defender.
