Member of the Executive Committee of the Russian Football Union (RFU), Igor Lebedev said that the executive committee of the organization made a decision to cancel the tax on foreign coaches in the Russian Premier League (Premier League) and the National Football League (First Division).

      The tax on foreign coaches is canceled. Cancellation of tax on foreign players is also under discussion", - “Tass” quotes the words of Mr. Lebedev.

      Earlier RFU President Vitaly Mutko spoke against the practice of levying "taxes" on foreign coaches. In 2013, RFU decided that the Russian Premier League teams have to pay 5 million rubles  for the right to hire foreign specialists, while FNL clubs - 2.5 million rubles.

"We must help the leagues and clubs to earn money," - said Mr. Mutko.
