According to the agent Stefano Caira which represent striker Igor Budan and midfielder Fabio Simplicio, both 29, Lokomotiv are interested in the services of the unwanted Palermitan duo. While the latter transfer may prove very challenging given the player's importance to Palermo, the transfer of the former player is very realistic since Budan failed miserably to cement his place in the starting line-up. Actually he played only 5 games during last season, in which he failed to find the back of the net on any occasion. Personally, with regards to Budan we should look elsewhere. He look well past his prime.
On the other hand, in my opinion Lokomotiv should do their best and try to lure the Brazilian powerman to Moscow. As I had already deduced luring Simplicio to Moscow is not an easy task, especially with Serie A giants Lazio keeping their tabs on the Brazilian. However with the contract talks between Palermo and the representatives of Simplicio stalling for the time being, a move to Moscow can be all the cards. Moreover the number of Brazilian players plying their trade in Russia (4 in Lokomotiv only) may tempt the Brazilian to Russia. Hope so anyways! He would strengthen our midfield; thats for sure!!
