Safonov has been undergoing divorce proceedings with his ex-partner for three years and they have been fighting for custody of their daughter. A decision was made on Thursday demanding that the goalkeeper owed his ex-partner a significant sum thought to be in the region of €600,000.

Talking to a local television station in Russia called Match TV, Safonov’s lawyer was asked about the situation. He responded saying, “I can neither confirm nor deny the amount. But the debt is significant.”
