CSKA goalkeeper Fyodor Lapukhov attracts international interest

CSKA goalkeeper Fyodor Lapukhov is drawing significant attention from foreign football clubs, according to reports from Tema Sport. Representatives from various international clubs are expected to attend the upcoming derby at Vasil Levski Stadium to scout the 23-year-old Belarusian national team player.

Lapukhov’s recent performance against Panathinaikos, where he recorded 10 saves, has bolstered interest in his services. Observers have noted his strong instincts, positioning, ability to play far from the goal line, and confident distribution with his feet, which are highly valued in modern football.

Interest in the goalkeeper is not new. CSKA previously competed with Spartak Moscow to secure his signature during the 2024/25 winter transfer window. Reports from last spring suggested Spartak Moscow was preparing an offer worth 4 million euros. Additionally, Western European clubs including Eintracht Frankfurt and Southampton have been linked to the player, who has expressed a preference for playing in stronger European competitions.
