Kubans Response to Rumors of Black Sea Clubs Possible Use of Their Stadium in RPL

The press service of Krasnodar’s FC Kuban responded to rumors suggesting that FC Chernomorets from Novorossiysk might host its home matches at FC Kuban’s stadium during the 2025/2026 season if they secure promotion to the Russian Premier League.

**“There are reports indicating that if Chernomorets reaches the RPL, they are considering the use of FC Kuban’s stadium.”**
— “That stadium belongs to the Ministry of Sports of the Krasnodar region. It is not our property, and the decision lies with the regional authorities,” said a spokesperson for FC Kuban in an interview with Championat.

It was previously reported that Chernomorets could be denied entry into the RPL due to their home stadium not meeting the league’s requirements.
