- Do you miss your motherland?
- Dynamo is outstanding team and it’s a great honor for me to perform for this club. I’ve already got used to everything. Berislav Stanoevic (talent scout), Domagoj Vida and Ognjen Vukojevic help me a lot. Of course I miss my family, but relatives visit me in Kyiv. Besides I live with my girlfriend.
- How’s your Russian language study coming along?
- I understand almost everything. Twice a week I attend Russian language classes. Soon I’ll do interviews in Russian (smiling).
- Have you found common ground with Yevhen Khacheridi?
- Football language is cross functional. It’s great to play with such good centre back as Yevhen Khacheridi.
- How did you become centre back?
- I started my career as supporting midfielder. Once two centre backs picked up injuries right before the game against SK Rapid Wien and I took the place of one of them. I played well and Austria won the game.
- What can you tell about your relations with Oleh Blokhin?
- Blokhin is reputable professional and it’s a pleasure to work with him. I’ve never met such great coaches.
