Russian chess player Yan Nepomniachtchi will play a game with Norilsk Nickel President Vladimir Potanin on December 24. This was reported to “Lente.ru” in the company.

The company noted that Potanin had already played chess at interuniversity tournaments in the 1970s, when he was a student at MGIMO.

Business is similar to chess – it is also a confrontation between rivals and thoughts. I like to compete with the strongest in their field, because they have a lot to learn. And in this sense, the opportunity to play a chess game with Ian Nepomniachtchi is a great success for me.

Norilsk Nickel and the Russian chess player began to cooperate in the fall during his preparation for a series of games for the title of world champion – then Nepomniachtchi lost to the Norwegian Magnus Karslen. Now the two chess players will meet at the World Chess Championship in Warsaw, which will take place from 25 to 31 December.
