Biography
Roman Eremenko - Finnish football player of Russian origin, until recently, playing in the Russian club "CSKA" and the Finnish national team at the position of the attacking midfielder. For his career, the athlete managed to become a champion of two countries, many times raised over the head of national Cups, and also spent over 70 fights in the adult team of Finland and twice called the football player of the year in this state.
Roman was born on March 19, 1987 in Moscow in the family of the famous Soviet football player Alexei Eremenko, the stars of the Moscow Spartak, Torpedo and Dynamo. The boy has two brothers: Senior Alexey, named after Father, and Junior Sergey. All sons of Eremenko-senior made a football career.
When Roma was three years old, the family moved to Finland, in the city of Pietarsaari. Since further childhood and youth of the boy passed in this northern country, an athlete eventually received double citizenship - Finland and Russia.
At an early age, the novel about the "game of millions" did not even think. The novel was obsessed with the eastern martial arts, went to the aikido section, and the young men's walls were hung with photographs and posters of the legendary fighter and actor Bruce Lee. Nevertheless, later, in the example of his father and her older brother, the athlete also stepped onto a football path.
Football
Up to 17 years old, Roman Yeremenko played for youth teams of Finnish clubs "Yaro", "Hick" and "Yokerit", and also spent one season in the Norwegian "Troms", where the father of the novel played at that time. When the guy got the right to sign a contract independently, the footballer made a choice in favor of the Italian Club Udinese, which spent four years. Successes there, the midfielder did not achieve, but he managed to draw the attention of the scouts of the famous Ukrainian club - Kiev "Dynamo".
In Kiev, Eremenko played brightly and useful, and the footballer turned out to be the first legionnaire from Finland, who went to the Ukrainian fields. For three years, the midfielder held 120 matches, won the title of the country champion, twice won the Super Cup and the main thing - received invaluable experience in the Champions League and Europa League, where he was even declared the best assistant for the year.
The next place of professional growth of the football player was Kazan "Rubin". Interestingly, the leadership could very well earn a novel, because the Spanish "Atletico" and German "Schalke-04" were offered a lot of money for him, but they did not take place transfers, and in the end Eremenko left for free. As a free agent, he signed a contract with Moscow CSKA, with whom in the 2015/2016 season won gold medals of the Russian Championship.
Finnish football player is most valued by coaches for its versatility. It switches freely to any position in the midfield, and if necessary, confidently plays the right, left or central defender - depending on the situation.
In the fall of 2016, the Finnish TV channel MTV reported that the footballer failed the doping test after the match of the Champions Football League. Due to the fact that the athlete did not pass this test, the Disciplinary Committee of the Union of European Football Associations for a month removed the Roman Eremenko from the matches for CSKA and the Finnish national team. Because of this ban, the football player did not participate in the 2018 World Cup qualifying match against Iceland.
From this disqualification in the sports biography of Eremenko, a dark band began. Subsequently, the disciplinary committee extended a sentence until the decision was further dedicated to the FIFA disqualified for all tournaments.
In mid-November of the same year, when the initial period of disqualification of an athlete should have ended, as a result of further research, the disqualification of a football player was launched. This time, Roman Eremenko was removed for two years already. But the reason for disqualification turned out to be much more serious: the athlete was caught by cocaine.
Is the athlete really used drugs or used dope based on this substance, it is unknown, but the analysis of the sample "A" showed the presence of Eremenko cocaine and its metabolites in the blood, which violates the UEFA anti-doping rules of 2016.
In March 2017, the footballer filed an appeal, but against the background of constant doping scandals, the control, ethical and disciplinary committee of the Union was not configured to relax.
Personal life
With his wife, Marika, who by profession is a hairdresser, Roman Eremenko met with the help of an older brother. At one time, Alexey met with the sister of Marika, and once his brother came to visit her with him. On the first evening, young people almost did not communicate, but the novel took out the phone's phone and began to correspond with her. Now they are happily married and grow three children: two daughters, Adriana and Adeline, as well as the Son Romeo, born in 2016.
The footballer leads an account in "Instagram", where most photos are devoted to the family athlete's family.
Roman Yeremenko confidently talks in five languages: Russian, Italian, Finnish, Swedish and English. Of course, a great merit in this is a nomadic lifestyle and the need to understand the local residents of those countries in which the novel lives. But the fact remains a fact: football player - polyglot.
Eremenko is a very calm, balanced and non-conflict person. All emotions, he exists exclusively on the playing field, and in ordinary life and every way to bring it extremely difficult. In addition, Roman is not Azarten as many of his colleagues. The best holiday for him is to spend time in a family circle, with his wife and children. Also, a young man likes to read good positive books, and occasionally can get out of friends in a movie or entertainment center.
Today, a footballer, devoid of professional training, continues to play sports at the amateur level. As the press brother athlete Sergey told the press, the novel "hurts with the ball", but without fanaticism. A football player understands that running every day for 20 km ingestive benefits will not bring, and the body is exhausted.
Sergey also negatively belongs to the punishment of his brother. He does not justify a relative, but he believes that the novel could bring much more benefit in these two years, for example, as a coach of youth team, and the complete strikeout of a professional football player from sports life is too severe punishment.
Roman Eremenko now
The latest news from the life of a disqualified athlete is also not particularly pleased with the football player fans. On May 14, 2017, there was news that Roman Eremenko leaves CSKA. General Director of the club Roman Babayev officially stated that CSKA refused to extend the contract with this player.
In an interview, the football player said that during disqualification performs the functions of an agent of the younger brother. Also, Roman Eremenko regularly flies to Africa, where, according to an athlete, his football players live. On the recommendation of the comrades, Eremenko became an agent of a number of talented African players.
In February 2018, however, more optimistic rumors appeared. After Sergey Yeremenko's younger brother, Sergei Eremenko joined the Spartak football club, there were guesses that the novel goes to Spartak. Fans are confident that since since November 2018, the football player will start playing a red and white team in the status of a free agent.
Football player fans are even confident that Sergei's invitation itself was needed, only to replace his more popular brother on his side.
