The general director of Shakhtar stated that last season the club paid 15 million dollars in taxes, and after the sale of Mikhail Mudryk, 25 million went to help the inhabitants of Mariupol.
Previously, Donetsk Shakhtar officially voted on the signing of the young Brazilian winger Kevin, for which the Ukrainian grandee was guaranteed to pay Palmeiras 12 million euros, and another 3 million were transferred as bonuses.
The general director of Shakhtar, Sergey Palkin, relies on food, and it is believed that in the minds of a large-scale war in Ukraine through the Russian invasion, such significant sums will be spent on the transfer of football players.
“You know, just like the president of the club: our goal is to rebrand and enhance the image of Ukraine. Today it is somewhat important, because Europe’s victories are no less important than Ukrainian football’s, and Shakhtar’s. And in order to overcome and delight patients, it is necessary to have a competitive team: highly qualified coaches and football players. So, we are buying a foreign citizen, but we are competing for the Ukrainian club. Naked myself at the "
If we are successful in Europe, then we will earn more, and obviously, we will pay more taxes in Ukraine.. Last season we paid 15 million dollars in taxes and, in addition, after the sale of Mudrik, we financed a project to help the inhabitants of Mariupol “Heart of Azovstal” for 25 million dollars.
Therefore, the image of Ukraine and the development of Ukrainian football are the main principles that we follow. But today it is impossible to develop football without investment. We are obliged to invest, become stronger, improve the rating of Ukraine, earn money, help and pay taxes. I would like to thank all Ukrainian football clubs and their leaders for investing in the development of the championship, in the future of Ukrainian sports and Ukraine at such an important time. Kozhen today is trying and doing everything in his power.
And great thanks to the Ukrainian soldiers who are stealing our country.
At the cost of your health, your lives, you should sacrifice everything so that Ukrainians can live on the native land and bring war and football into the minds. And with our help, we will earn everything from us, and Ukrainian football will be on a high level,” Shakhtar’s official website quotes the words of Sergei Palkin.
Apparently, earlier Sergei Palkin spoke about those that Shakhtar raised a proposal of 40 million euros to an unnamed club for the Ukrainian playmaker Georgiy Sudakov.
