Yegor Ilyich Titov (Егор Ильич Титов; born on May 29, 1976) is a Russian football coach and a former player. He played as an attacking midfielder. Yegor was known for his amazing skills. These included his ability to create plays, see the whole field, control the ball, and pass it very accurately.

Playing Career

Yegor Titov was born in Moscow, Russia. He spent most of his playing career at Spartak Moscow. He joined the team in 1995.

Spartak Moscow Success

Yegor helped Spartak Moscow win six league titles in a row. This was a huge achievement for the club. He was also named the Russian Player of the Year in both 1998 and 2000. This shows how important he was to his team.

He played for the Russian national team. He even played in the 2002 FIFA World Cup. He played over 30 games for his country.

A Difficult Time

After a game in 2004, Yegor faced a challenge. He was suspended from playing for 12 months. This was because of an issue with a substance that wasn't allowed in sports. After his suspension, he returned to Spartak. He helped the team finish second in the league in 2005, 2006, and 2007. This allowed them to play in the UEFA Champions League.

Moving On

In 2002, there were talks about Yegor moving to La Liga team Atlético Madrid in Spain. However, he decided to stay with Spartak Moscow.

Later, Yegor stopped playing for the national team. This was before a game for the Euro 2008 qualifiers. He said he wanted to spend more time with his wife, who was expecting a baby.

In August 2008, Yegor left Spartak Moscow. He joined Khimki because of some disagreements and a dip in his form.

In early 2009, Yegor signed with a new club called Lokomotiv Astana in Kazakhstan. He joined this team with his former teammate, Andrey Tikhonov.

Retirement and Coaching

Yegor Titov stopped playing professional football in early 2010. In 2012, he played a few games for Arsenal Tula. This team was in a lower league at the time. His former teammate, Dmitri Alenichev, was the manager of Arsenal Tula.

In 2015, Dmitri Alenichev became the manager of Spartak Moscow. He hired Yegor Titov as his assistant coach. Yegor continued his coaching career, later working as an assistant for Yenisey Krasnoyarsk.
