Thanks to his persistence, Yegor Titov, a football player whose career was just beginning, quickly attracted the attention of mentors. He was one of the most promising players of his age.
Double play
Working hard in training, Titov attracted the attention of the coach of the backup team of “Spartak”. Soon Titov - a football player, whose number in the capital's club was 9, put on the Spartak uniform. He received the most flattering reviews about his game from the coaching staff. However, due to the unsportsmanlike build of the football player, they were in no hurry to call the main team to the games.
Nevertheless, after some time, Titov's excellent performance forced the coaches to turn their attention to him. The decisive word, according to many experts, was made by Oleg Romantsev , the head coach of the Moscow club at that time . It was he who personally invited the midfielder to the main team and insisted on signing a contract with him.

According to the midfielder, he was interested in the opportunity to play with his former teammate Andrei Tikhonov.
A few days later, the players agreed to move to Lokomotiv (Astana), and soon contracts were signed with them. By the summer, the club from Astana had serious financial difficulties. Football players were not paid salaries, as well as bonuses. “Locomotive” in that season managed to achieve significant success, winning silver in the championship of Kazakhstan.
