As the situation evolves, the question of potential charges against Igor Zagretdinov, the implicated coach, remains unanswered. The players maintain their stance of unwilling involvement and point to a possible discord between Zagretdinov and the team's doctor. The investigation continues, casting a spotlight on the darker aspects of the sporting world.
