KHL imposes suspensions on Soshnikov, Selivanov

The League imposes a sports corporate ban on Sergei Soshnikov and Alexander Selivanov.

To date, Admiral’s total debt to the players is 102.8 million rubles, including arrears for 56.3 million rubles.

The debts had emerged when Admiral was administered by Sergei Soshnikov as General Director of HC Admiral Association (until 13.05.2018). Settlement agreements were signed on 2018 June by the new General Director of HC Admiral Association, Alexander Selivanov, but those were executed with gross violations.

As a result, the League decided to impose a corporative sports ban on Sergei Soshnikov and Alexander Selivanov. Therefore the club will lose the access to the CIB (e.g., for trades or signing new players).

Dmitry Chernyshenko, KHL president:

- The League has a zero-tolerance policy on arrears and overdue payments, and on violation of signed agreements. The ban will be in effect until the debt’s full repayment.
