Good news, everybody: Alena Leonova is the latest skater to escape from Morozov's clutches!
From next season, she will be coached by Evgeni Rukavitsin in St. Petersburg.
According to the story I read, she will be joining the likes of Konstantin Menshov, Maria Artemieva, Gordei Gorshkov and Polina Agafonova. (I hadn't heard it anywhere before now, but I take it this means Polina A has left Urmanov and Kositsina).
Here is where I found the news on Facebook:

And for our Italian speakers (of which I now know there are many!), here is the original story that the Facebook photo is linking to:

So, that is now TWO gorgeous skaters that have finally seen sense and ran a mile! :yay:
I had half a mind to post this in the Ilinykh/Katsalapov thread, but thought it would get buried in all the gossiping!
