Some of the players from „Botev“ Plovdiv, whose president is Filipov and who live near the cooperative where he was shot, are in shock. Yesterday they refused to train, the team's coach told „This Morning“.
Stanislav Genchev was with Filipov until the last moment at the stadium before the assassination attempt.
„We watched the match from 9 pm. We parted ways and he said: „Come on, we'll see you tomorrow“. And there is no tomorrow“, said Stanislav Genchev, head coach of FC „Botev“ Plovdiv.
When a person leads a huge company, he undoubtedly makes enemies, he told „This Morning“ Filipov's friend Yordan Arabadzhiev, chairman of the Union of International Carriers.

“He was not worried, he walked without security, he went to the forest to ride a bike several times a week“, says Yordan Arabadzhiev, chairman of the Union of International Carriers.
According to accounts from football players from the club, which have not yet been confirmed by the police, the woman who lives at the address called Filipov that she had noticed a man wearing a mask in the area.
