Dnipro-1 midfielder Oleksandr Pikhalyonok spoke about his transfer history this summer.
Alexander Pikhalenok — In the summer there was information that you could return to Shakhtar. Was there really such an option?
- There was interest, but the matter did not get to the specifics - no paper came to the club. In the end, everything quickly calmed down.
— It turns out that Jovićević wanted to see you at Shakhtar, but something did not work out?
- Yes.
— What did you talk about with Jovićević after he left for Shakhtar?
- When he was officially appointed to Shakhtar, he called not only me, but also other guys from the team. He thanked us for our joint work and wished good luck.
— Will you have an additional mood for the match against Shakhtar because of Jovićević?
- I think yes. Matches with Shakhtar will be very interesting. But it will not be soon, we are playing with them in the penultimate round of the first round.
— Did you have options from foreign clubs?
- There was also interest, but there were no specifics.
