The Pitmen's mentor continues to stay in Ukraine.

The situation in Ukraine since the morning start of the next round of aggression by the Russian Federation continues to escalate.

UEFA has already convened an emergency meeting of the Executive Committee in order to impose sanctions against the aggressor, and while we are waiting for the results of the consultations, the Italian press managed to interview Shakhtar Donetsk head coach Roberto De Zerbi, who is currently in one of the hotels in the capital of our country.

Explosions woke us up at night. This morning the local football association suspended the championship. The embassy urged us to leave, but I can't go for it..

I am a sports person. I can't turn my back on the club, football, and walk away like that.

As a result, the Ukrainian authorities closed the airspace, so we are now stuck here.

I didn't come for money. It's no secret that Shakhtar offered me more than any other club in Italy could offer..

But I came to gain experience, and now I'm waiting for the future developments,"

It should be noted that earlier the Latin American players of Shakhtar and Dynamo turned to their embassies in order to evacuate to their homeland.

Shanovni Spivvitchizniki! Today, Ukraine recognized the blow from the side of the Russian Federation. We ask you to keep calm, stay safe, read all the official Ukrainian dzherel, do not worry and do not spread fakes. Kraina podolaє ordinsk bulk. We are with you її podolaєmo! Glory to Ukraine!
