Alenichev is back to football! He has swapped the routine days in senate for the restless coaching career. Who if not he has something to tell the young players about football, a player who started in Energiya Velikie Luki and then won the Champions League with Porto.

"To tell you the truth I have already thought about coaching career," said Alenichev. "But I would not start it immediately after the career of a player. I decided to wait, to watch football from the outside. And out of the blue I received such an interesting proposal."

"I learnt about it from the sports director of the RFU Nikolay Pisarev. And he also told me that Sergey Fursenko wanted to meet me and the president of RFU officially offered me to head the youth teams."

"Fursenko stressed that the main task of my team is to prepare qualified reserves to become the core of the national team in 2018. And moreover all national teams should become one family now."

"I am a bit confused because I do not have experience in youth football but I am not afraid of it. I rely on the help of Gennadiy Kostylev - RFU consultant on youth football."

"On the first meeting with the players I will say that time flies very fast and they cannot waste it. And their goal is World Cup-2018 where they are to defend the colours of Russia. We have to think about it now."
