Former Spartak Moscow and Lokomotiv Moscow striker Roman Pavlyuchenko has weighed in on who he believes is the best Russian forward currently playing. “If you look at all the forwards today… Tyukavin is promising, more or less. For me, Tyukavin is probably number one among the forwards. Vorobyov is having a good season. But honestly, it’s hard to say. Komlichenko is not someone I’m particularly impressed by. In my time, we had Kerzhakov, Sychev, Pogrebnyak. We fought for the top scorer title every year. The competition was much stronger, even in the national team. Now, of course…” Pavlyuchenko said in a video on the YouTube channel “100% Myasa”.
In the current season, Tyukavin has played 30 matches for his club across all competitions, scoring 12 goals and providing five assists.
