Match TV and the PREMIER video service have started filming their new project - Andrey Arshavin Menyaet Professiu (Andrey Arshavin Changes Occupations), in which the famous football player will pick up a hockey stick and show off his skills on the ice. Vladimir Bystrov, a two-time Russian football champion and 2008 Euro bronze medallist, will also take part in the show.
The entertainment show will be released in May on the PREMIER video service with the best moments from the episodes also shown on Match TV.
Andrey Arshavin and Vladimir Bystrov will be testing themselves in hockey, a sport that is brand new to them, so there are sure to be many challenges along the way.
