“For 12 years and until today, I have given and deprived my heart to myself to Shakhtar,” he wrote on his Instagram..

“Like in a football arena, so is the pose between the green field.

Dear President, for everything you did for us. For those who gave us a chance to receive punishment? Hero in the brightest minds at the brightest stadium. For those who believed in me. I gave everything for my club.

Dyakuyu, Shakhtar. Dear, my Ukrainian Donetsk. I wish for golden cups and won.

Young Shakhtar, never give up, be the best, progress and glorify our dear Shakhtar throughout the world. I believe in you.

I will always cheer for you. I have once again had an orange-black heart.

I will deprive Shakhtar. The history behind? I mean, my whole life is over"
