Sports experts call Artemy Panarin a promising hockey player. The athlete’s success is obvious in the Russian national team and in the NHL. Despite his young age, the young man has achieved great heights, receives a decent salary and is happy in his relationship with model Alisa Znarok.

Childhood and youth

Artemy Panarin was born in Korkino, Chelyabinsk region, on October 30, 1991. The hockey player's zodiac sign is Scorpio. The Panarin family is not one of the wealthy. There was a risk that the child would eventually fall into bad company. The boy's grandfather, former hockey player Vladimir Levin, offered to send him to sports. Parents chose hockey as a developmental activity. The grandfather believed in the success of his grandson, and the mother and grandmother were worried about his performance at school and possible injuries.

After the first lessons, it became clear that the boy had potential. But Artemy didn’t like hockey. He was capricious and did not want to go to training. Levin invested in his grandson the money he managed to earn in retirement and took the boy to classes. Panarin remembers his grandfather’s care with gratitude. In interviews, the hockey player often says that his victories are solely the merit of his grandfather, who believed in him from the very beginning.

At the age of 7, Panarin became a player in the Chelyabinsk hockey team of the Tractor Sports School. From the age of 10 he studied at a sports boarding school. At 13, he became a student at the Signal sports school. Then the young man began to play for the Podolsk club Vityaz. The team agents noticed the nimble hockey player in time. Until 2008, Artemy played in the youth league. In 2009, his name was indicated in the team’s application for the championship.

Hockey

Artemy Panarin's professional career began in adolescence. At the age of 17, he was lucky enough to play in 5 major matches, showing an assist. The coaches noted the player’s promise and passion. Avoiding overwork, they let him out on the ice less often. In 2009, Panarin became a permanent member of the Russian Knights team. He played as a forward. During the season, the hockey player managed to score 21 goals and provide 32 assists.

Experts noted with regret that during his performance in the youth league in 2010-2011, Panarin became less accurate and active. The player’s results and performance deteriorated, but this did not affect the interest of KHL coaches and managers. In the same year, the athlete was lucky enough to compete for the Russian national team.

In 2012, Artemy Panarin received an invitation to join the Ak Bars club. The player's performance did not impress the fans. In 12 games, the hockey player scored only one goal. The bad streak ended with a series of successful performances, after which Artemy was invited to play for the St. Petersburg club SKA. The athlete improved his tactics and technique of playing the game and grew professionally. During the 2013/2014 season, he appeared on the ice 51 times and scored 20 times against opponents.

Artemi Panarin's best goals

In 2015, Panarin scored 26 goals in 54 matches. In the same year, he was offered a contract by representatives of the Chicago Balkhorst club. Already in the first match played in the main lineup, Artemy Panarin scored a goal against the New York Rangers. 2016 was marked by the hockey player’s first hat-trick in the NHL. For his participation in the regular season, Panarin received the award as the best rookie of the year.

The player's contract was extended. Under the terms of the agreement, Artemy was supposed to receive $12 million. The athlete’s income for the deal was the largest amount for a 2-year contract in the NHL. At the same time, a documentary film called “The Same Panarin” was released about his history and career growth.

In 2018, the hockey player plays for the Columbus Blue Jackets club. Panarin plays as a left winger. He is called an aggressive player. Videos of his participation in fights on ice were published on the Internet.

Personal life

The young man turned out to be successful in sports and no less successful on the love front. The first relationship that became known to the public was an affair with Alexandra Lvova. Today Artemy Panarin is in a relationship with Alisa Znarok. The girl is the youngest daughter of a titled coach and a popular model. Alisa is considered one of the most promising brides.

The couple met in 2016 at the World Hockey Championship, where Artemy played for the Russian national team. Alisa at that time collaborated with Match TV and recorded video material about the competition. The hockey player had to woo the beauty. He spent all his free time next to her, caring for his chosen one.

The lovers tried to hide the relationship that had begun. They even skillfully confused the paparazzi by returning separately to the hotel where they lived together. The couple's first official appearance was attending a party in honor of the bronze medal won by the Russian team.

The couple's relationship is still stable and serious. Journalists are confident that Alisa Znarok will become the wife of Artemy Panarin, and are waiting for the young man to take a decisive step. But young people are busy building a career and are in no hurry to decide on a wedding. Their photos together regularly appear in glossy magazines, giving the press a reason to discuss the personal life of the hockey player and model.

Artemiy Panarin now

Panarin’s biography is the story of how a boy from a provincial town achieved real sporting heights. In 2018, he was among the NHL's best shootout players.

The athlete's fans closely follow his online accounts.

The reason to remember the star wives and girlfriends of Russian hockey players was the loss of the status of “free agent” by one of the best players of the Russian national team at the home world championship, Artemy Panarin. At the start of the tournament, his heart was free. The hockey player himself spoke about this, complaining about his poor English, which does not allow him to flirt with girls in America.

The player expressed the hope that during his visit to Russia he would be able to meet someone. It was successful, and not with just anyone, but with the daughter of the head coach of the Russian national hockey team Oleg Znarka, beautiful model Alice.

The couple declassified their relationship during a party at which our national team celebrated winning bronze medals at the home championship. The hugging lovers were caught in the sights of the paparazzi. It is not yet known how Oleg Znarok reacted to the relationship between his 23-year-old daughter and his 24-year-old ward in the national team, but, whatever his reaction, it apparently was not able to prevent the romance.

Pelagia

Literally on the eve of the start of the World Championship, it became known about another addition to the regiment of star darlings of Russian hockey players. His romance with the striker of CSKA Moscow and the national team Ivan Telegin famous singer declassified Pelagia. At the tournament itself, in the stands, she passionately supported the team and, of course, her new boyfriend.

But their romance is not the most pleasant story. It turned out that the relationship between the 29-year-old singer and the 24-year-old hockey player began at a time when the common-law wife of the CSKA player was eight months pregnant. Soon she gave birth to Telegin’s first child, Mark. But when the baby was born, his dad was already with another woman.

Daria Dmitrieva

Hockey players are known to love gymnasts, with whom fate brings them together at the same training base in Novogorsk - there they meet and fall in love. Such relationships do not always last long. But there are also exceptions. As an example - a novel Alexandra Radulova and silver medalist of the London Olympics, four-time world champion, rhythmic gymnast Daria Dmitrieva.

Sasha and Dasha met when the gymnast’s friend invited her to the cinema and invited her friend Alexander there. The feelings appeared immediately. They intensified even more after Radulov helped the girl with the treatment of her sick mother. Soon the hockey player invited the girl to live together in his rented apartment in Moscow. And in August 2015 the wedding took place.

Evgenia Kanaeva

A similar story connected Evgeniy Kanaev With Igor Musatov. She is one of the most titled rhythmic gymnasts in the history of world sports. She has two Olympic medals, 17 world championship gold medals, 13 European championship gold medals and nine more gold medals from two different Universiades. He is an average player, known only for his hooligan antics outside the ice arena.

No one knows how the hockey player, known for his drunken brawls and constant fights, and the famous gymnast met. They say that there were no witnesses. It is only known that this significant event took place in 2011 and is unlikely to happen in Novogorsk. Since then, the lovers spend all their free time with each other. And in 2012, their wedding became known.

Elena Dementieva

Another sports couple - Elena Dementieva And Maxim Afinogenov. She is an Olympic tennis champion, he is an Olympic bronze medalist and world champion. The girl has already completed her career, and the hockey player is long past her peak. But the couple is still together - they live a happy family life.

The young people met in 2004, when Maxim and his friends, in their free time from hockey, flew to Paris for the Grand Slam tournament to cheer for Russian tennis players. In one of the restaurants, he came face to face with a girl whom he often supported while sitting in front of the TV. It was Elena Dementieva. The relationship began when everyone together in a large company in a restaurant celebrated the “Russian” final, in which Elena lost Anastasia Myskina.

Maria Butyrskaya

The younger generation of sports fans may not know Maria Butyrskaya, but experienced fans will definitely remember the girl who became the first Russian world figure skating champion in women's singles. In addition, she won gold medals at the European Championships, silver at the Universiade and Grand Prix finals.

In 2006, the girl got married to a hockey player Vadim Khomitsky, who at that time played for CSKA Moscow. He was ten years younger than her, but this did not stop the romance. A year later, the couple had a son, Vladislav, and in 2009, their daughter Alexandra was born. Now Vadim continues to play hockey - as a defenseman in the Sochi club.

Nicole Ambrazaitis

This concludes the list of famous wives and girlfriends of hockey players associated with sports, and we return to where we started with Pelageya - to the stars of Russian show business. First in line is the ex-soloist of the group “Mirage” Nicole Ambrazaitis. The girl owes her current family happiness and a friendly family in which four children are growing up to her singing career.

One of the most famous Russian hockey players today, forward for SKA St. Petersburg Ilya Kovalchuk, then still a young player, fell in love with Nicole on TV when he first saw her in the video of the Mirage group. Later, one of their friends introduced them. No one thought that the novel would change the hockey player’s whole life, and that a passing hobby would become the fate of his whole life.

Lera Kudryavtseva

One of the most amazing pairs of Russian hockey is the forward of CSKA Moscow Igor Makarov and famous socialite Lera Kudryavtseva. What's surprising about this couple? Age difference. 45-year-old Lera is 17 years older than her 28-year-old chosen one. The hockey player is only three years older than Kudryavtseva’s first son, Zhan, whom she gave birth to from her first marriage to a member of the “Tender May” group. Sergei Lenyuk.

The hockey player came into the girl’s life by chance, but just in time, when she needed support. He, according to Lera herself, radically changed her. The wedding took place in 2013, just a few months after the couple started dating.

Yulia Nachalova

There were scandals in the love story of another Russian hockey player Alexandra Frolova and show business stars, singers Yulia Nachalova. The romance between the two stars became known in 2011, when the striker played for the legendary American club New York Rangers, and the girl went to the USA to record her new album. Apparently, the athlete and the singer met there.

The problem was that from the United States the girl called every day to her unsuspecting husband, who was babysitting their little daughter while the album was being recorded. The husband, by the way, like Frolov, was a famous athlete, only not a hockey player, but a football player. His name was Evgeniy Aldonin and he played for CSKA Moscow and the Russian national team.

Sports news. Behind the scenes of sports

Is it true that Artemy Panarin is Oleg Znarok’s son-in-law?

Is it true that Artemy Panarin is Oleg Znarok’s son-in-law?

The Russian national team successfully competes at the World Hockey Championship, which takes place in Cologne.

This week we will see the denouement - the playoffs and the possible final Russia - Canada. Everyone is waiting for this! Our man works in Germany and provides a special report from the scene.

It’s boring to talk about the game itself; the entire sports press writes about it. In a nutshell: by Monday, the Russian team remained the only team in the tournament that had not suffered a single defeat at the World Cup. The team led by Oleg Znark has already reached the playoffs, but this does not mean anything. As soon as you lose the quarterfinals to some Finns, all dogs will immediately be unleashed on the Russian team.

SAUSAGE FOR A SIGN

It’s much more interesting to talk about the behind-the-scenes of the main tournament, which the whole country is watching. For example, an interesting dialogue took place between Oleg Znarok and one of the journalists who always pokes his nose into different stories.

Znarok leaves the press conference hall and stops at a catering point where journalists buy food for themselves. The head coach of the Russian national team was hungry after the victory over Slovakia (6:0). He orders himself a large sausage and bun.

Why are you buying our food? - the journalist says arm in arm. - It's here only for the press, at reduced prices. Are you the press?

Here Znarok explodes and starts shouting that there is no need to count other people’s money and there were times when he fed a whole family of four with 50 lats a month.

It's a thing of the past now. Znarok earns good money by combining posts in the Russian national team and SKA. At the same time, he is said to be owed money by Dynamo Moscow, where he previously worked. There was a decent amount hanging there, because Dynamo funding problems arose again.

WHY DIDN'T OVECHKIN ARRIVE?

Everyone also asks whether it’s true that Znarka’s daughter, Alisa, is dating national hockey player Artemy Panarin?

Yes, this is the absolute truth. They have been together for over a year now. But they are not married. So don’t rush to say that Panarin is Znarok’s son-in-law.

Another question was sent to the editor: why Washington captain Alexander Ovechkin did not come to the World Cup. Are there any pitfalls here? They say he has some kind of conflict with Znarok?

No, that's not true. They are great friends. But after the NHL playoffs, a photo of Ovechkin’s leg appeared on the Internet. There is a hematoma on the entire ankle. It’s strange how he was even able to play hockey with such an injury. It is clear why Alexander refused. Although Znarok wanted to invite him to the World Championships even in this state. Ovechkin just said he couldn’t play - that’s all.

But there seems to be a conflict between Znarok and Evgeni Malkin. The head coach said that if Washington had advanced further to the playoffs, three CSKA players would have been included in the team's roster - Nichushkin, Kaprizov, Naumenkov. At the same time, the brilliant Evgeni Malkin was not mentioned. Zhenya is offended that despite his star status, Znarok sometimes underestimates him.

TELEVISION PEOPLE “ARE HANGING”

As for the World Cup, strange things are happening. The tournament takes place in two countries - France and Germany. Actors in Paris failed to shake up their audience. Few spectators attended hockey there, and besides, the French team did not make it to the playoffs.

And the security guards got so crazy that they banned the sale of souvenir pucks in Paris. Because some attacker could take it and throw it on the ice during a match, having previously filled it with explosives. This is how they fear terrorist attacks in France.

It's a completely different story in Cologne. You can sell anything here. And it’s easy to enter the arena almost without being searched. One journalist arrived at the stadium straight from the train with a huge suitcase. They didn't even bother to inspect him! Amazing frivolity.

At the same time, the ice quality in Cologne is very poor. Due to the heat and poor performance of the refrigeration unit, the coating melts, and hockey players must pull pucks out of puddles during the match. The break between periods turns out to be prolonged because the site has to be re-filled. TV people who have a rigid network are “hung” from this.

If you look at the tournament bracket, Russia will meet one of the trio in the quarterfinals - Finland, Switzerland, and the Czech Republic. The alignment will be known late on Tuesday evening. But overall the tournament is turning out to be colorful, and we have a chance for gold.

TASS/Sport Express

Artemy Panarin admired at home and in Columbus. And when his Blue Jackets teammates found out what he went through to get to the NHL, they couldn’t believe it. The story he told The Athletic may bring a tear to your eye.

A frightened eight-year-old boy stood at a bus stop in Chelyabinsk, tears streaming down his cheeks. His hands searched his pockets again and again in a panic - he was looking for a bus ticket. At the previous stop, he went to buy a snack and reached into a secret pocket sewn inside his pants. That's probably when he dropped the ticket.

Grandma didn’t just give him money, she specially sewed a pocket into his jeans so that thieves couldn’t get to it. It was the end of the 1990s, crime was flourishing in Russia. Even the children were not safe.

The boy stood in the hope that the heavens would take pity on him. He was so small that he was mistaken for a five-year-old - all skin and bones and a shock of golden hair.

Suddenly two men stood in front of him. "Where are your parents? Why are you crying, are you lost? They looked around the stop, looking for the boy's accomplice - they were afraid that this was a setup. Not seeing anyone suspicious, they gave the boy money, making a promise that he would spend it on a ticket.

It was one of the most terrible days of my life Artemy Panarina. He bought a new ticket and took the bus to Korkino, and this was the very beginning of his life’s journey from loneliness and poverty to star status in the NHL.

Life in Korkino with grandparents

Few people in North America knew what Panarin had to go through to become one of the best hockey players of his generation.

Columbus took a bit of a risk when they traded Brandon Saad to Panarin, because they didn’t know how Artemy would adapt to a new city, coach and team that didn’t have his own Patrick Kane.

This deal became fateful. Panarin set a club record for points and assists in a season, but that wasn’t the only thing the Russian shocked Columbus with.

“He has an incredible motivation to be the best, I’ve never seen anything like it. And at the same time, he enjoys every minute. He loves hockey. Loves to be on the ice. He infects others with his attitude. He's a sniper, but that's not all he can do. And this rest is much more important than goals. When he came to us, I had no idea what we would get in this guy,” admits the team’s head coach John Tortorella.

Over time, Panarin became more and more comfortable in the locker room. At first he communicated with Bobrovsky and Atkinson, and now he does not hesitate to address the entire team. When Artemy began to talk about his life, his partners could not even imagine what his childhood was like.

Artemy's parents divorced when he was only three months old. He was taken in by his grandmother Nina and grandfather Vladimir. They lived in Korkino, a small mining town that stands on the edge of a huge quarry.

“This is my home, but apart from the mine, there’s not really anywhere to work there,” Panarin recalls.

His grandfather played hockey in Korkino in his youth, then worked in a mine and various factories. He bought a cow to sell milk. There wasn't enough money. Grandma Nina was a seamstress and also baked pies for sale. They were barely making ends meet when they took in Artemy in 1992.

“The other guys laughed at me.”

By the age of five, little Artemy was already on skates, which his grandfather borrowed from the local skating rink. The first pair of skates was for figure skating, then hockey skates appeared. But they were so big that Panarin wore them right over his boots.

They gave him old, worn-out leggings, worn down to holes in the palms. Grandfather supplied leather patches by cutting them from old boots. Artemy also received his first other equipment - his grandfather brought used things, and his grandmother altered them to fit his grandson.

His skates didn't even have real laces. “Grandfather found a suitable rope instead of shoelaces.”

Artemy’s grandfather drove him to the arena; he drove an ancient, rusty UAZ. The car often broke down, and then they were late for training or returned home late.

Other boys could not pass by the skinny boy in the equipment collected from old items.

“The other guys laughed at me when I appeared on the ice. They laughed at my grandfather's car, at what I wore. Above me,” Panarin says with a smile.

“It was uncomfortable to ride in my equipment. The other guys had good uniforms, but I had what was left of the older guys. Grandma did some things herself.”

Panarin did not like exhausting training and did not see the point in it. To persuade him to study, his grandfather lured him with sweets. And he was always strict when it came to skating.

At the age of eight, Artemy began traveling to Chelyabinsk six days a week to train. When his grandfather couldn't take him, he took the bus.

“It was hard for him. The other guys had everything ready, but Artemy had to borrow things, or ask his grandfather to find something. There are no words to describe how humiliating this was for Artemy. But he was a strong child and overcame everything with the help of his grandparents. Others also helped, but mostly they managed on their own. It was hard to watch,” recalls his childhood friend Georgy Belousov.

But there were also good memories. The grandfather moved furniture in the large room, installed a homemade goal and practiced throwing with his grandson. And grandma cursed when they missed.

Panarin skated quickly, but did not stand out in any way compared to his peers. When he was 13, he was unhooked from Traktor and sent to a lower team - Signal. Then he almost gave up everything. "I had no hope."

Moving to Podolsk, 2011 World Cup and Gagarin Cup

His friend’s father found the Vityaz school for him. Panarin said goodbye to his family and went to Podolsk. For the first time, he received a real new uniform and a stick made from composite materials.

“I didn’t know until that moment that I hadn’t felt the puck before. I had gloves with patches made of leather from boots, very thick. I didn’t even feel the stick in my hands. When I came to Podolsk for the tryout, I was shocked that I felt the puck on my hook.”

In Podolsk they saw in him something that they couldn’t see in Chelyabinsk. Maybe the new form helped? But if he had not passed the screening, he would have returned to Korkino. What could Artemy become in his homeland? A miner or factory worker. Panarin spent four years at the Vityaz school.

He recalls that at the age of 16, emotions from childhood began to boil within him, caused by shame and humiliation. He was already better than the guys who once laughed at him, and he didn’t want to stop there.

“It was a strong feeling that resulted in a great desire. Those years... they motivated me to rise high."

At the age of 17, he made his debut in the KHL, and in 2011 the whole world learned his name. He was the most unknown player in the Russian youth team, but Valery Bragin saw something in him. Panarin remained silent throughout the tournament in order to become one of the main heroes of the final.

With the score 0:3 in the third period, Panarin started our team’s comeback and then scored the winning goal. “It’s a memory that lasts a lifetime, but there’s always the next game, the next step you want to climb.”

Four years later, Panarin was a KHL star and winner of the Gagarin Cup with SKA. The time has come for the NHL, where Artemy was not drafted. He could choose his own team, and signed a contract with Chicago.

“It wasn’t my grandfather who set this goal for me. He said - don’t go there, don’t. I was afraid that the NHL would break me.”

“Our problems don’t compare to what he went through.”

Just as he once left for Moscow, now he went by plane across the Atlantic. He became an instant star in Chicago, playing on a line with Kane on one of the best teams. But two years later they decided to exchange him.

“On the day of the trade, we talked to him about how lucky he was to be in Columbus. In Chicago he was in the secondary roles, but in the Jackets he will be the first,” says his agent Dan Milstein.

All the difficulties of life that Panarin faced may have made him the hockey player he is now. Tortorella always admires his ability to hang on to the puck despite the fact that he weighs nothing. Maybe it was those children’s skates that didn’t fit his size, all the difficulties he faced as a child, that made his skating so wonderful.

He doesn't lose the puck even when surrounded by several opponents. Maybe the old patched leggings sharpened his puck skills? Maybe in childhood this desire to be at the top arose in him?

“It’s impossible to imagine that in this day and age a 26-year-old guy would have such a life story. Now it’s clear why he is so kind and modest. And so hungry. This guy works hard every day and wants to be the best. Life made him what he is,” says the Columbus captain. Nick Foligno.

Tortorella nearly shed a tear when he heard Panarin's story. “Khlebushek is one of the strongest guys on the ice. His mental toughness translates into physical prowess. But what he had to go through... Are we talking about difficulties? We are worried about getting into the playoffs. We get upset when we lose several matches in a row. It doesn't compare to what this guy went through."

In Panarin’s locker room there is a travel icon of the Mother of God and Jesus Christ. After each game, he kisses her, crosses himself and puts her in his bag. Before every home match, he stops by the Orthodox Church.

“Sometimes I go inside to think alone. Sometimes the church is closed, then I just sit next to her. I don’t agree with everything that’s written in the Bible, but I believe in God.”

He doesn't hold a grudge against his parents. “Mom tried to build a career. It's hard to have a child at 20 years old. I talk to my father a couple of times a year. He's still my father. But I don’t have the same feelings for my parents as other people.”

With grandparents it's different. With his first salary at Chicago, he gave his grandfather an SUV. When he comes home, he still stays in their small apartment.

“Artemy looks like a grandfather. A big joker, but when necessary, he becomes serious. His grandfather is strict but kind. Artemy is the same. I can always call him. I remember one day I dialed him early in the morning, and in America it was already late evening. Just wanted to chat. He didn’t hang up the call, and we talked for a couple of hours, although he had a game the next day,” says Belousov.

Grandmother Nina and grandfather Vladimir watch almost every match of their grandson in the NHL. They call each other a couple of times a week. “When I was little, I didn’t understand everything they did for me. Now I realize how difficult it was for them. I owe them everything,” admits Aremy.

Professional Russian hockey player Artemy Panarin, who lives in Chicago, found his happiness in his native Russia. Today he is in a loving relationship with one of the most promising domestic models. Artemy Panarin and his girlfriend can soon please their fans with a luxurious wedding.

Briefly about the athlete

Artemy was born in Korkino, Chelyabinsk region, on October 30, 1991. After his parents sent him to hockey in early childhood, the sports career of the future celebrity was built rapidly. Already at the age of 7 he played for Chelyabinsk Traktor. In 2004, he was enrolled in the Signal sports school, where he became quite a prominent figure.

In 2009 he was included in the Podolsk team. At the age of 17 he enters the major league, where he remains until 2011.

Today Artemy defends the honor of the Columbus Blue Jackets National Hockey League club number 72. The young man is very successful, has a net worth of $3,000,000 and continues to grow professionally.

The romantic story of a left winger

In the personal life of the talented hockey player, everything is going just as well. He is happy with Alisa, the youngest daughter of Oleg Znarok, the head coach of the national team. Today the girl is at the peak of her popularity as a promising model. She is in demand not only in her homeland. She is one of the most desirable brides.

The young people met in 2016 during the World Cup. Artemy played as a forward for the Russian national team, and Alisa was preparing videos for Match TV.

Interesting fact: shortly before the championship, journalists asked the athlete whether he had a girlfriend. Panarin answered negatively and complained that his poor pronunciation prevented him from meeting American women. The hockey player expressed hope of finding love in his country.

His wish was destined to come true. Acquaintance with Alice grew into a long, tender romance. The courtship lasted two weeks. The young people spent all their free time together. Despite the cloudy Moscow weather, they walked around the city every day and dined at the best restaurants in the capital.

The couple tried to hide their relationship for a long time. After each date, the lovers parted before reaching the hotel where they lived. Artemy was the first to enter the building, followed by Alice.

Despite careful secrecy, the news of their romance spread with great speed. No one had any doubt about this after the young people together attended a gala party in honor of the Russian team’s bronze medal.

It is curious that Oleg Znarok has long been looking for a groom for his daughter from his closest sports circle. He accepted Artemy's matchmaking approvingly. The talented scorer of the Russian team always enjoyed his favor. Having received his father's blessing, the couple continued to build a romantic relationship.

Artemy Panarin and his girlfriend Alisa Znarok have been dating, according to modern standards, for quite a long time - for more than a year. Today the guy is perceived as nothing less than the future son-in-law of the head coach. Many people are waiting for a decisive step from the couple - the beginning of family life. However, as of July 2017, there is still no information about the upcoming wedding. It seems that at this stage both prefer to pursue their own professional growth.

Journalists and fans persistently continue to monitor the development of the relationship between the two celebrities. On the Internet you can find very few exclusive photos of lovers together taken by the paparazzi.
