Ruslan Kurbanov is a footballer who plays for the Gabala club. At twenty-five, his career is at its peak. Ruslan plays as a striker, but he can also play as a centre-forward or as a playmaker.
Biography of Ruslan Kurbanov
Ruslan was born in the city of Stavropol in a simple Azerbaijani family on September 12, 1991. From an early age, the boy was interested in football. At school, he played on the football team and showed good results. That is why he was noticed by representatives of the "Dynamo" of the city of Stavropol. And about five years later, Ruslan passed the selection at the Rostov football club, after which he was accepted there. There he was in almost all youth squads, and in 2008 he officially signed a contract with the club.
Then he went to field trials at a lower division club. About half a year he played in "Nika". He played nine matches, then added eleven more for Taganrog, where he stayed for about six months.
When he returned to his club, it turned out that his results were not very impressive. Because of thishe was sent to double. This did not suit Ruslan Kurbanov, so after a while he terminated the contract with the club.
Neftchi
In 2011, Ruslan signed a contract with Neftchi. After that, there were more positive moments in his life. The actions of "Rostov" left an unpleasant mark on his soul, but over time he recovered from this.
Within six months in the new club, Ruslan managed to enter the field only seven times. After that, he was sent on loan to Sumgayit. There he played a year, participated in sixteen matches and scored two goals. After another year passed in the same team, but he, in his opinion, was better, as he played twenty-four matches and scored six goals. And when Ruslan returned to Neftchi, it was decided to send him on loan again so that such a talented footballer would not sit on the bench for nothing. The next six months in Sumgayit were not very successful: he failed to score a single goal when entering the field fourteen times.
After returning to "Neftchi" Ruslan finally began to release on the field. Within six months, he played nineteen matches and scored four goals. After that, he was allowed to enter the field sixteen more times, and he scored four more goals.
Despite successful games, he was sent back on loan, this time to Hajduk. But there he played only a few times, and he was not particularly remembered for anything. Therefore, Ruslan Kurbanov returned back to Neftchi.
And in the seasons of 2015 and 2016, Kurbanov became a base player. This attracted the attention of the right people, and after that, in 2016, he was sold to Gabala for about fifty thousand euros.
Gabala
While at the club, he played twenty-seven matches during which he scored six goals. His contract was until 2018 inclusive. But if Ruslan Kurbanov continues to perform well, then a contract extension is possible.
Youth team
It is authentically known that Ruslan Kurbanov is Azerbaijani by nationality, although he considers Russia to be his native state. In 2010, he was called to the youth team of Azerbaijan. And over the course of several years, he played seven matches, but he didn’t really remember anything.
