Shakhtar striker Kauan Elias shared his feelings after the bright start of the new UPL season. In the first round match against Kudrivka, the Brazilian scored his debut hat-trick against a professional career and helped the “Girniki” win with a score of 5:1.

After playing as a forward, we set ourselves high specific goals to spend the shortest career season.

" This is my special record. I think less is needed, and I can work hard to achieve this. I'm singing that I won't give in. Together with my headquarters, and also with the team here at Shakhtar, I know that I can achieve this."

Elias also said that the Donetsk club faces serious challenges both in the domestic arena and in European cups.

“I think that now we face significantly more shouts. We play in Champions League. In addition, we need to steal the champion title. It’s much more complex, even though everyone wants to win this trophy, and we are guilty of it. “We know that it won’t be easy, but we can do everything we can to win the championship again and get through to the Champions League,” said the Brazilian.

The 24-year-old Brazilian plays for Shakhtar from 2025. During this hour, he played 47 matches in all tournaments, scoring 15 goals and providing 8 assists.
