Sergey Palkin shared his thoughts about the transfer work of “Girniki”.

Shakhtar General Director Serhiy Palkin commented on the Donetsk club’s performance in the transfer market.

“It is our responsibility to develop an emphasis on the investment itself, so that people may say: “You are investing such an important time, you are in the middle of a war,” and so on. I can say that this is true, we have a war, the situation in Ukraine is even worse, the situation in Ukrainian football is even worse, and everyone is dying and everyone is trying to change our Ukraine, starting with and the most simple human speeches and ending with football.

We cannot allow ourselves to allow this situation in Ukrainian football to continue, it is our fault to invest in Ukrainian football, to develop it - in the hour of war. This is very important, because this is the image and exposure of Ukraine, we cannot continue to live like this. I don’t want us to go beyond the border and play 0:5, 0:7, but it’s awkward. I don’t want our fans and our people to waste the opportunity to play Champions League games in Ukraine in one or two years. But this is such a risk that we will spend the rating and regret that our fans will no longer win the Champions League. We can't allow this.

We must spoil our Ukrainian football, we can save the rating of Ukraine, which is now. Therefore, we want to create a very strong team, to show even better and brighter football, to develop Ukrainian football. And, for example, if you read the chats of our patients, most of them say that it is now important to bring foreigners to Ukraine. But through the love of our brand, through those that the legionnaires trust our club, through our love, and through the fact that, although I cannot give guarantees, we can report as much as we can to ensure protection and safe minds for our citizens. I mi tse robimo.

Palkin: From the moment the war began, everything changed. As they say about Kevin, I was in negotiations with him and the club stretched out the fate. This is the first episode in my life and career, since negotiations with one of the Gravians were a major issue, and more. We had a lot of important negotiations, we spent a lot of time asking our father’s grave that everything would be fine when we came here.. When we got in touch with our footballers, the stench began to bubble up and explain where we were playing. We sent photographs of our training session, training Maidan members, etc.. We explained the situation in Ukraine, all the details, so that we would be aware of it, and we would understand how everything works here. So, thinking about safe and secure protection is a headache, and for us it’s also a headache. That is why we have made plans that allow us to ensure maximum protection for the Gravians.

If we praise the decision to sell the gravels, we understand that they have reached the highest level in our club and the time has come and beyond. We couldn't keep them in any longer. You know, we sold them for quite a lot of nasty pennies, and these pennies today help us maintain the club, help us invest in new Gravians and pay our borgs, because when the war broke out, we are here for 40 millions of euros to fight for the people we got.

I want to emphasize that we really have very good young people: Bondar, Bondarenko, Hemp, Sikan, Riznik. They all hold great prospects, they all continue to develop unfavorably, and I believe that in the future they will become stars. But we can say that the leading role of this team belongs to Sudakov, because he is also the key leader.

I have already said that a large number of European clubs are concentrated in the new one, and I think that by the end of the year there will be 100 hundred thousand in one of the leading European clubs. In my opinion, he is actively developing, progressing, and it is clear that he is becoming a strong leader in the field of medicine in this young age. And it’s very important,” Palkin’s press service said to the club.

Previously, Palkin voiced the goals of the “Girniks” for this season.
