Tarasov caused controversy when he removed his shirt to reveal a vest displaying a picture of Vladimir Putin with the words "the most polite president", during an already politically charged[14] match between Turkish opponents Fenerbahce in their 2-0 Europa League defeat on Tuesday 16 February 2016.[15] It was anticipated that an official judging on the stunt would turn up in one month time. UEFA chose to fine him €5000.
Tarasov has a daughter from his first wife, Russian gymnast Oksana Ponomarenko. Tarasov was then married to Russian TV personality Olga Buzova from June 2012 til December 2016.[16] In January 2018, Tarasov married Russian model Anastasia Tarasova (née Kostenko) and they have 2 daughters and 2 sons together.
