Football player biography
The novel was born on March 19, 1987 in Moscow. Then the whole family moved to a permanent residence in Finland in the city of Pietarsaari. It was there that Roman's father was supposed to continue his career.
As a child, the boy was not particularly keen on football. Instead, he attended the aikido martial arts section. His idol has always been the famous fighter and actor Bruce Lee.
True, over time, Roman still went to the football section and began to show himself as one of the best players of his age in Finland.
At first, Eremenko played for local youth teams, but in 2005 he moved to live in Italy. He was signed by the Udinese club. Roman did not manage to break into the base of the team, and he was even forced to travel on leases. In 2008, Dynamo Kiev became interested in him. Roman did not hesitate for a long time and signed an agreement with the people of Kiev for one year, with the right of subsequent redemption.
In Ukraine, Eremenko spent three seasons and during this time became the real leader of the team. With his direct participation, Dynamo became the champion of the country in 2009.
In 2011, the player moved to Kazan Rubin for $ 13 million. He returned this amount in full and became a key player in Kazan in the center of the field. But the desire to play in Europe tormented Roman's soul. Rubin did not want to let go of his best player and constantly turned down the best teams in the West. As a result, Eremenko unilaterally terminated the contract with the team in 2014 and moved, as a free agent, to CSKA.
During his performance in the Moscow club, Roman managed to become the champion of Russia, but then there was a real scandal in his life. Traces of drugs were found in Eremenko's blood and was excommunicated from football for two years.
After the expiration of the period of suspension, Roman decided not to play for CSKA anymore, but signed a contract with Moscow Spartak. He has not yet appeared on the field with the new team. He will have such an opportunity only in October.
Eremenko played more than 70 matches for the Finnish national team, but this team did not achieve much success with his participation. But he was named the best footballer of his country three times.
The personal life of a football player
