"It offended many." The Russian goalkeeper of the Kazakh club commented on Cherchesov's jokes.

It should be noted that the Russian coach has faced criticism from Kazakhstani media for his communication style during press conferences, including numerous jokes about questions from local journalists.

Stanislav Cherchesov took charge of the Kazakhstan national team in July 2024. His contract is valid until the end of the 2026 World Cup qualification.

Under his leadership, the Kazakhstan national team has suffered seven defeats and recorded one draw in eight official matches. The team finished last in their UEFA Nations League group, which included Austria, Norway, and Slovenia.
