Named Юрий Алкаев, his Twitter handle is @YuryAlkaev and his bio reads: ‘former SVR agent currently living in Northern Ireland.
Owner of several Casino franchises across the British Isles and Scandinavia. Sports journalist.’ However, with the confusion caused by his tweets which quotes the spokesman of AC Milan in a report that is nowhere near the truth, one wonders what kind of journalist Alkaev is.
