Goalkeeper of Ukrainian origin Vladislav Krapivtsov, representing Girona, shared his memories of how he ended up in Chelsea after the collapse of Dnepr-1.

" I was constantly with backups, training, they took me to games. The only thing is that I couldn't play without a contract.

Realization comes after the fact. When you've never played at a senior level before, some things are new. A lot depends on physical fitness to be at the right level. There is reverence for star names, but I came for a reason and wanted to prove that I deserve this chance. Everything was going great. In terms of everyday life in England, everything was excellent, but halfway there they told me that it didn’t work out because of bureaucratic issues,” he noted..

Was it hard?

" I knew that after the cool Euro there was interest from other clubs. I started training individually,” added Vladislav.

As you know, from January 2025 Vladislav Krapivtsov signed a contract with Girona. His agreement will continue until the summer of 2029.

Let us remind you that earlier information appeared about the possible transfer of the Ukrainian goalkeeper of Girona Vladislav Krapivtsov to Real Madrid.
