The center back of RK Zagreb Igor Belyavsky commented on the information that he may be offered to change Belarusian citizenship for Croatian.
— There was information that the national team of Croatia is interested in you. Are you considering the possibility to change handball citizenship and play for Croatia?
— I read it in Handballfast and was surprised. Nobody has offered me anything, and even if I had received an offer, most likely, I would have refused, even taking into account the fact that they placed second at the World Cup now. I want to present my national team, wait for the return and win medals in international arena with Belarus.
— How do you work with Velimir Petkovic? And what does he recall about the time spent in the national team of Russia?
— We are working perfectly. The coach trusts me, gives me a lot of playing time. He is a very understanding person and strict at the same time, he has a lot of experience. He remembers Russia only in a good way, — Igor Belyavsky said.
