CSKA Moscow remove Odiah and Gabulov from the squad list

CSKA Moscow have parted company with their Nigerian defender Chidi Odiah, who has been one of the longest-serving players at the club.

The Nigeria international has been plagued by injuries over the last three years and was not able to regain the form that made him one of the leading full-backs in the Russian league in the early 00s.

The Red Army also removed goalkeeper Vladimir Gabulov from the official team-sheet in the RPL. The Anzhi goalie was on loan in Moscow end of last year, but has now returned to his club.
