- Now there are a lot of rumors around Dovbik's transfer to Salernitana. Alexander Valeryevich, do you think he needs to move to this club, isn't this his level?

- I think that "Salernitana" is not the option that suits Dovbik. Earlier they wrote that they were interested in a higher status of teams from Italy and England, and here - "Salernitana". But this will be decided by the football player and the leadership of Dnipro-1.

- Do you think Dovbik should be released already?

- Now Dnipro-1 will play in the Europa League, and I believe that Dovbik can show his best side in these matches and receive an offer from a stronger club than Salernitana.

I think the best option for Dovbik is to play with Dnipro-1 in the Europa League and prove himself. Here attention will be riveted to him.

- What championship do you think suits Dovbik?

— Dovbik is well suited for Italian or English football. He gained weight, got stronger, he can push. Such an annoying and powerful striker will be useful to clubs from the top 6 of these leagues.

— How do you assess the chances of the renewed Dnipro-1 in the new UPL season?

— I think that one should definitely fight for the top three winners.

- Will Dnipro-1 be able to impose a fight between Dynamo and Shakhtar for the first place?

- It will be hard. Dynamo is the clear favorite of the championship, the rest of the teams are more or less equal.

Shakhtar - it's not clear yet, a lot of new players and a coach have joined there. Vorskla looked good in the Conference League qualification, although they were eliminated by AIK.

I think that Shakhtar, Dnipro-1 and Vorskla will fight for the second place. Dawn is not impressive yet. As for the rest of the teams, I can’t say, because I didn’t see their matches. It will become clearer after two or three rounds.
