In this article, from yesterday, Igor Shpilband expresses confidence in the pairing of Khokhlova and Andreyev. He says that he and Marina Zueva definitely want to "undertake this project". The article says the training will be in "America", so I think they will be training in Detroit, at Igor and Marina's regular training base. Only the financing is uncertain, for now. It may be that Igor is influenced by Marina in this, since Andreyev is her son, but I trust Igor's judgement, and I have seen on YouTube evidence that Fedor is deeply talented. Jumps used to be his weak point, years ago, but dancers do not have to jump. *wink* I am very eager to see this couple in action on the ice.
