Ruslan Valeryevich Pimenov (Russian: Руслан Валерьевич Пименов; born 25 November 1981) is a Russian former footballer.
He played mostly for Lokomotiv Moscow and then briefly for Alania Vladikavkaz. In 2005–2006 he played for FC Metz in France. In 2007, he transferred to Dynamo Moscow. However, Andrei Kobelev soon forbade Pimenov even to train with the team as the footballer lacked for fitness. Pimenov was released from his contract only in December 2009.[1]
He played four matches for Russia in 2002, including two at the 2002 FIFA World Cup.
Ruslan was married to Glikeriya Shirokova. They first met at Lokomotiv Moscow where Glikeriya was working as a staff member. They have one daughter together, Kristina Pimenova, who is a well-known child model. Kristina has an older half-sister, Natalia, Glikeriya's eldest child.
