Consider the biography of Ivan Novoseltsev.
Childhood
The future Russian defender was born on August 25, 1991 in the capital of Russia. From early childhood he was fond of football. Parents in every possible way helped the boy in his endeavors. They brought his son to a specialized children and youth sports school of the Olympic reserve Khimki, where he learned the basics of ball games.
Career
After graduating from SDUSSHOR, the young football player Ivan Novoseltsev began his professional career in the youth squad of Khimki, who played in the amateur league. At the age of 20, he signed his first professional contract with the team of the same name, which at that time played in the second Russian division. Immediately after signing the contract, the promising defender was leased to the local Istra. For this team, the Russian defender spent only 17 matches and was able to impress many specialists with his game.
Thanks to outstanding performances, he attracted the attention of a number of Russian Football National League clubs. The struggle for the young defender was won by the Moscow Torpedo, which signed a long-term contract with the Russian player for three full seasons. Two years later, Ivan Novoseltsev helped his new team win the bronze medal of the championship. This allowed the Moscow team to return to the big leagues. For the metropolitan team, football player Ivan Novoseltsev spent 38 matches and was marked by one goal scored.
The debut of the Russian defender in the Premier League took place in early August 2014. Then Ivan came out in the first team in a away match against CSKA Moscow.
Having lost only six months in the Russian Premier League football for the Moscow “Torpedo”, the Russian defender goes to “Rostov” until the end of the season. For several months of appearances in the Rostov team, Ivan was awarded a full-fledged contract.
After spending one and a half seasons with Rostov, the Russian defender helped the team take second place in the championship and qualify for the Champions League by playing 44 matches and noting two productive actions.
In the summer of 2016, Ivan moved to St. Petersburg Zenit as a free agent. Career in the St. Petersburg club initially did not work out, since each subsequent match Ivan spent on the bench, and in a number of unimportant matches he left in the starting lineup. After one and a half seasons, the Russian central defender was left on loan to the Tula Arsenal, where Ivan spent the last two fights.
Returning from the Tula team, the young man immediately got into the Anzhi Makhachkala.
In total, for the St. Petersburg team, the Russian defender spent only five fights in two incomplete seasons.
To date, Ivan continues to defend the colors of the Makhachkala team, speaking on loan until the end of the current game season. For “Anji” Ivan Novoseltsev spent five matches in the first team.
The rights to the Russian football player to this day belong to the St. Petersburg "Zenith".
National team appearances
As a child, Ivan was not invited to the youth or youth national teams. The first appearance of Ivan in the national team took place at the end of March 2015, where a promising defender was released to replace in a friendly match.
For the Russian national team defender Novoseltsev at the current time spent only five matches and was not noted for productive actions even once. Since 2016, Ivan has not been invited to the national team due to a lack of playing practice.
Personal life
Today, Ivan is married to the sister of professional basketball player Victor Keyru. In the spring of 2015, the Russian defender made an offer to his beloved, and six months later the couple got married. The Novoseltsevs have no children, but the spouse assures that soon there will be a replenishment in the family.
