Head coach Mariupol Alexander Babich told about the transfer policy of the club and shared plans for the preparation for the new season.

Earlier it was reported that Mariupol had left the vacation.

"There are football players who left Mariupol. We had, let's say, middle-aged performers who did not always play, so we made a joint decision to complete the cooperation. At this age, children should play. With someone we did not renew the contract, someone on the contrary got a more tempting offer. It happens, there is nothing terrible in this, "- Babich quotes the official website of Mariupol.

"Of course, I would like to keep the backbone and point intensively. Now we have problem number 1 - this is an attacking line. Totovitsky and Bolbat are now working with the Miner. I think that in the near future the situation will clear up. Perhaps some of the old fighting friends will return to us. We will see".

"Newcomers? Pasha Polegenko went through a good school, played for the national teams of Ukraine. He must compete on the right flank of both defense and attack. Plus, Pasha is a versatile football player, so he can play on the left. In Zirka he played on different schemes, acting as an extreme defender, and lateral. He has a good right foot, there is speed and volume of work he is doing big. I'm sure he will quickly join the team and will benefit us. Vlad Vakula, we spent six months. He has good qualities. This shy player who can play out of the box is not afraid to take the game on himself and he has a "finish". Yes, we understand that Vlad is a young guy, and youth is characterized by instability. But we believe that Vlad will quickly understand our requirements and adapt to the team. I love and I can work with youth. The most important thing is that they listen and hear our demands ".

"All the players came to Mariupol in good condition. Pleased to surprise that almost no one has problems with excess weight. Literally a couple of people came with an extra kilogram, but everything is fine. Those guys who did not pass tests with a gas analyzer in the winter, were also tested ".

"Everything is normal, everyone is alive and well. At the first stage we have two sparring plans. June 25 in Zaporozhye will play with Zarey, and on the 29th - at home with Yarud. We will prepare ".
