Russia will not cancel limit on foreign players in Russian Premier League

The currently existing limit on foreign football players in the Russian Premier League will not be canceled, even despite the Russian national football team's poor performance at the 2016 UEFA Euro, Sports Minister Vitaly Mutko said.

"We won't cancel the limit on foreign players," Mutko said on the Match TV television channel on June 25.
