"Just read the media, you'll see how they're praising Khusanov! They are right! He is a top-level player! We have no complaints at all. In the last game, just like in the previous one, he played brilliantly. We are very pleased!" says the coach. "Especially how he reacted to not playing for a month after the match against Arsenal... You can't even imagine how hard he worked in training and how he carried himself in the dressing room — that shows Khusanov's true level. I usually judge players by how they behave when they face difficult situations."

"I am sure he received an excellent upbringing from his parents in Uzbekistan. He was in France for only a few months and then immediately joined Man City in the Premier League. Adapting to such drastic changes is not easy. But he didn't stop: he listened, he learned, and as a result, his physical condition has become top-notch. Manchester City has secured a top-level center-back for many, many years."
