Igor Mihailovich Shalimov (Russian: Игорь Михайлович Шалимов; born 2 February 1969) is a Russian football manager and former player. During his playing career, he played as a midfielder, primarily in the wide position.

Playing career

Shalimov started his playing career in Spartak Moscow. After a few seasons with Spartak Moscow he transferred to Foggia. He transferred to Inter Milan. He has also played in the Italian Serie A for Bologna, Udinese and Napoli, as well as MSV Duisburg in Germany and FC Lugano in Switzerland.[citation needed]

He was a member of the USSR national team which participated in the 1990 FIFA World Cup. After the dissolution of the Soviet Union he represented the unified CIS team at the European Championship held in Sweden. He was one of a number of players who refused to play for then-coach Pavel Sadyrin at the 1994 FIFA World Cup. Two years later, in 1996, he became a member of the Russia national team for the European Championship held in England.[citation needed]

Shalimov ended his playing career in Napoli after being banned for two years for testing positive for nandrolone, a banned steroid substance. He has claimed that an anabolic, containing nandrolone was given to him while he was hospitalized in Moscow, to stop an internal bleeding.[2]
