Volga and Nizhny Novgorod may be joined into a single club

Volga Nizhny-Novgorod and their local rivals, Nizhny Novgorod, may merge into one single club, a report in Sovetsky sport claims.

According to the governor of Nizhegorodskaya oblast, Valery Shantsev, this move may follow if Volga gets relegated from the RPL.

Once the two clubs merge, it won’t be necessary for them to have the B-teams in the lower leagues.
