Club career
He made his debut in the Russian Premier League for Rostov on 19 June 2020 in a game against Sochi.[1] Rostov were forced to field their Under-18 squad in that game as their main squad was quarantined after 6 players tested positive for COVID-19.[2][3] Despite allowing ten goals in a 10–1 away defeat, he was selected Player of the Match,[4] as he made 15 saves (setting the Russian Premier League record)[5] including a saved penalty kick.
On 15 December 2020, Popov announced that he left Rostov.[6]
