Khojiakbar Alijonov will play for "Pakhtakor" for another two seasons. The player is a key figure in the revamped roster of the "Lions". Recent negotiations between the parties concluded positively.
The footballer commented on the contract extension:
- Together with "Pakhtakor", I have become the champion of Uzbekistan five times. I am pleased that the club's management sees me as part of the team for the coming years. I hope to have a new season where I can contribute not only to "Pakhtakor" with the new coach but also to the national team. Ahead of us are two Champions League matches, and we have a chance to advance from the group. Now we will focus all our attention on the upcoming matches in February. Thank you to everyone who supports me.
