Real Madrid's Ukrainian goalkeeper Andriy Lunin, despite being ill with flu and having missed all of his team's recent training sessions, will be included in the squad for today's Champions League final against Borussia Dortmund, which will take place in London.

This follows from the words of Real Madrid head coach Carlo Ancelotti, who, when asked who will take his team's place in goal today, was very unequivocal.

"Courtois will play, and Lunin will be on the bench," Ancelotti said at the pre-match press conference.

Earlier, Lunin himself said that he had no chance of playing in the final.

Ukrainian forward Roman Yaremchuk of Belgian side Brugge is one step away from a move to Turkish side Trabzonspor.

Initially, the club from Trabzon tried to get on a full-time basis Nigerian forward Paul Onuacha from English Southampton, who spent the season on loan at Trabzonspor. But the transfer could not be finalised - the €15m Southampton asked for the player was unaffordable for the Turks.

Yaremchuk in this situation was an alternative option for Trabzonspor, and as soon as negotiations on Onuach finished without results, the Turkish club immediately switched to the implementation of the transfer of the Ukrainian striker.

According to Sporx, Trabzonspor held intensive negotiations with Yaremchuk for several weeks and eventually managed to agree all the terms of a personal contract with him. After that, according to the source, Trabzonspor representative Ahmet Bulut travelled to Belgium, where he is currently negotiating with Brugge on Yaremchuk's transfer. The Turkish club intends to formalise such a transfer by the end of this week.

Last season Yaremchuk spent on loan at Spanish Valencia (29 games, 4 goals).

If Spanish side Girona sell their Ukrainian striker Artem Dovbik, his previous club Dnipro 1 will no longer own any part of the rights to the player. However, the contract between the Ukrainian and Spanish club stipulates a certain percentage, which Dnipro-1 will receive in case of resale of the player.

And we are talking about impressive funds. The final percentage will directly depend on the actual amount of the transfer. Taking into account the estimated transfer value of Dovbik, as well as the order of the sums that Girona want to get for the forward (according to the media it is 40 million euros), the commission intended for Dnipro-1 in the current realities of Ukrainian football will provide the annual budget of the club for several years.

Recall, Dovbik moved to Girona from Dnipro-1 in early August 2023. Now the main contenders for the striker are Atletico Madrid and Italian Napoli.

Cherkasy LNZ midfielder Denys Oliinyk does not know yet how his future football fate will turn out.

The contract of the 36-year-old footballer with LNZ is valid until 30 June, and earlier it was reported that the parties do not plan to conclude a new agreement. Oliinyk himself made it clear that some specifics on this matter does not own.

"I can't say anything concrete at the moment. I allow everything. As I said, no comments yet," - quotes Oleynik's words "Sport.ua".

Recall, to LNZ Oleynik moved before the start of the current season, when he was in the status of a free agent after leaving Poltava "Vorskla".

The Ukrainian national team continues its preparations for Euro 2024 in Germany. On Friday, 31 May, the national team held two training sessions.
