Former Partizan head coach Marco Nikolic is close to being appointed to Lokomotiv.
According to the source, the 40-year-old specialist has already signed a preliminary agreement with the Moscow club. Serb expects that the situation with his appointment will be resolved at the end of May.
Last fall, Nikolic flew to Russia to negotiate with Lokomotiv and watch the team match against Dynamo (1: 2). The coach also visited the red-green game with Zenit at the end of February (0: 0).
Nikolic is currently analyzing Lokomotiv football and discussing the composition of the team for next season. The first number on the list of transfer priorities is Zenit striker Alexander Kokorin, who is on loan for Sochi.
It is noted that the current head coach of Lokomotiv Yuri Semin will be offered a position in the club structure.
Before the forced break in Tinkoff, the Lokomotiv RPL was in 2nd place in the standings, gaining 41 points.
