The coaching staff led by Andriy Shevchenko announced the names of the players for a friendly match with Italy and a match in the League of Nations against the Czech Republic.

Mentor "blue-yellow" so far decided to limit the list of "foreign players" who speak abroad.

The main list includes eight performers:

Eugene Konoplyanka (Schalke), Andrei Yarmolenko (West Ham), Evgeny Makarenko (Anderlecht), Roman Yaremchuk (Gent), Ruslan Malinovsky (Genk), Vasily Kravets ("Lugo"), Andrei Lunin ("Leganes") and Alexander Zinchenko ("Manchester City").

In addition, Shevchenko called four more players on the reserve list - Evgeni Khacheridi (PAOK), Ivan Petryak (Ferencvaros), Eugene Seleznev (Akhisar) and Igor Plastun (Gent).

Recall that on October 10, the Ukrainian team will play a control sparring with Italy, and six days later will meet with the Czechs in the League of Nations.

Recently Ukraine broke into the top 30 national teams of the planet.
