There are several chairs left from the Tambov football club

The Tambov football club actually ceased to exist and will be legally eliminated after the end of the bankruptcy procedure. This was told by TASS by the CEO of the club Olga Konovalova.

“Tambov” is nowhere else and never will perform, everything ended, ”she said. - As a legal entity, the organization still exists, because several employees remain in it, and several chairs on the balance sheet. There is a bankruptcy procedure, so the legal entity will exist until the appointed bankruptcy trustee will finish it. But the existence of a football person ended on May 16 along with a whistle about the end of the match. "

The last match in its history, Tambov played on Sunday as part of the 30th round of the Russian Championship, losing 1: 5 to St. Petersburg Zenit. In the standings, the team took the last, 16th place and left the composition of the Russian Premier League (RPL). Due to numerous debts, the club could not undergo licensing to participate in the divisions below the class.

“On May 17, we signed agreements on termination of contracts. There is nothing more to do here, the club as such is gone. There are only a few people left: an accountant, secretary and I,” Konovalova noted, adding that various departments, including the prosecutor’s office and the Investigative Committee, the Control Chamber and the Labor Inspectorate, are checking the activities of Tambov.

Tambov was founded in 2013, for the last two seasons he performed in the highest division of the Russian Championship, but he did not play a single match in the Tambov region, since the club stadium did not meet the requirements of the RPL. In November, it became known that the club lost almost all sources of financing, which almost led to the withdrawal of the team from the championship. RPL transferred to Tambov additional money in the amount of 44 million rubles, which allowed the team to finish the remaining matches of the season in the championship and the country's cup.
