Evgeni Plushenko commented on Elena Kostyleva’s departure from his skating school, stating that her parents crossed all boundaries. Here’s a translation.
“It was a great pleasure working with Lena. We had excellent chemistry – the best that could exist between a coach and an athlete.
Kostyleva understood me instantly, with just a word or a glance, and did everything that was required of her. We never refused or abandoned her as a skater. Circumstances simply developed in such a way that the decision was made by Lena’s parents.
We tried for a long time to find a compromise, but I want to come to training with a positive attitude. Especially when working with a young girl, whose mood must be taken into account. Kostyleva’s parents crossed all red lines,” Plushenko said.
