In 2023, ten Dynamo Kyiv players have their contracts with the club expiring.
Photo: fcdynamo.comOnly Kostevich has an end date not summer 2023, but December 31. He came in the winter, he will leave in the winter as well, both for Kyiv and without playing...
The list includes players who are important to Lucescu, and there are also those whose existence some have already forgotten. So who are these 10 Dynamo players who could leave the club for free in 2023?
Viktor Tsygankov (€25 million)
The leader of Dynamo and a player without whom it is difficult to imagine the team's attack. In the summer, he had a real opportunity to move to Girona for 10 million euros, but it didn't work out. The media had information that a number of Spanish clubs, including Sevilla, were interested in signing a pre-contract with Tsygankov already in the winter. That is, there is every chance that Viktor will leave Dynamo for free.
This is how the president of "Dynamo" comments on this situation:
"Tsygankov and I will resolve all issues. I have already spoken about this. Vitya is a dynamist, I think we will come to some kind of mutual agreement. He has a year under his contract, let him work"
"We will negotiate with him about the extension of the contract, but we are not going to persuade or coerce. He is not a slave of Dynamo. Let him do as he sees fit. I'm not afraid of losing a player. I'm not afraid of anything at all, and I don't respond to blackmail and ultimatums. Everything happens in life," Ihor Surkis commented.
According to journalists, Viktor himself has no desire to extend the contract and wants to discover a new stage in his own career. Tsygankov will be 25 years old in the fall, so when, if not now, should he move to Europe?
Oleksandr Karavaev (4 million euros)
I am sure that Alexander's contract will be extended. Karavaev became an important part of Dynamo, although it was hard to believe after his debut season. It is not only useful on the field, but also creates an atmosphere in the club's dressing room and team room. All feedback from coaches and partners who worked/played with him are always positive. The conflict with Petrakov is also long behind, although it seemed that this quarrel was for a long time.
Losing a national team player for free would be a very reckless decision. When Oleksandr came to Dynamo and took Oleg Anatoliyovych's number, he said the following:
"I know what a legendary football player played under him - Oleg Gusev, whom I still met in the national team, so this is a great honor for me.
I will try to approach him in terms of level and achieve what he achieved when he played for Dynamo," said Karavaev.
Karavaev can already be compared to Oleg Anatolievich in terms of versatility on the field, but there is still work to be done.
Denis Boyko (€1 million)
But this is where the dilemma arises. On the one hand, Denis is already 34 years old, and he only plays when Bushchan is absent. In addition, the level of salaries with the first number "Dynamo" there is approximately equal. Young and promising Ruslan Nescheret is already sitting under Boyko. So is it worth extending the contract for another year or two?
Boyko is an important part of this team. He is a pupil of the academy and a native of Kyiv, who returned to his native team after many years. Ending his career in "Dynamo" will be a good story. However, will the president of "Dynamo" want to pay Boyko the same solid salary? Will it be possible to sign a contract on other terms? We will find out soon.
Denis himself has no desire to leave the club in such difficult times.
— Have you thought about leaving Dynamo and moving to another European club to protect your family and yourself?
- No. As I already said, the club did everything for our families and the staff working at Dynamo. Never thought of leaving because of the war. It is impossible. I have to help my club and my country. Can't go now.
Vladyslav Kulach (€1 million)
Now Vladyslav is recovering from his injury. "Dynamo" did not include a striker in the application for the season. Lucescu was forced to transfer this player to the last, but you can't be nice by force. The contract with Kulac was signed according to the 2+1 scheme, it is unlikely that the club has a desire to activate that extension for one year. For the player himself, this is also a dubious prospect, if, of course, he wants to play and not sit on a salary.
"Dynamo" lost Vladyslav Kulac for a long time.
If you believe the information of Mykhailo Spivakovsky, then solid clubs from the Ukrainian championship were interested in Kulac. The demand for the player is there, so it looks like Kulach's time at Dynamo is coming to an end.
Nikita Burda (800,000 euros)
Finally. Finally, Nikita has recovered from all his injuries and is now able to play. He already managed to play against Fenerbahce in Istanbul and in the winning match against FC Lviv. A versatile defender, with experience and a very long history of injuries. It is necessary to give credit to "Dynamo", which extended the contract with the player for another year, and did not throw it into free swimming, as if it were spent material. What happens next? Will Burda stay in Dynamo for a long time?
Now a lot depends on him. There is also a chance to return to the national team, because in his youth he worked with Petrakov and he knows him very well.
"The coach who took me to football has already died. He saw talent in me, even though I'm hardly talented. The coach brought me to Oleksandr Petrakov. If it weren't for him, I doubt that I would be playing professional football at all."
Due to his experience, he can displace Denys Popov (who is also plagued by injuries) from the team's starting line-up. Will Burda deserve a new contract with "Dynamo" - one of the intrigues of this season.

Something from the series: What else are they in Dynamo?
Volodymyr Kostevich (500,000 euros)
There were hopes that Kostevich would be able to prove himself in Lviv "Rus", where he played on loan, but he was injured again. Now the player is again undergoing treatment and it is not known when he will be able to return to the football field. The chances of extending the contract with "Dynamo" are close to zero.
Mohammed Qadiri (450 thousand euros)
After the start of the full-scale invasion of the Erefiya, Kadiri went on loan to Honved. For the club from Budapest, the African played 10 matches (397 minutes) and did not stand out with productive actions. According to transfermarkt, Kadira still belongs to Dynamo and has not yet found a new club. If this football player is not in demand, even among UPL clubs, then the situation is deplorable.
Kadiri is shocked by the photos of the destruction in Ukraine after the Russian attack
Vladyslav Kucheruk (300,000 euros)
The Dynamo goalkeeper managed to play in the Ukrainian Premier League for Chornomorets and Kolos. After returning from Odessa, there was no information about his further football fate.
Benito (150 thousand euros)
Maybe someone will be surprised now, but Benito has one official game for Dynamo Kyiv. Yes, it's 5 minutes in the match with "Alexandria" (5-1). Benito played the most in Ukraine for Donetsk "Olympic" - 19 matches, 3 goals, 4 assists.
After the start of the war, the Nigerian winger played on loan in the Croatian championship for Gorica. He has 5 matches to his credit (4 in the championship and 1 in the cup), a total of 47 minutes. Benito's prospects are doubtful, so no one will notice how he will leave Dynamo. Another player in the selection "Are they Dynamo?"
Yaroslav Nadolskyi (100,000 euros)
Quite a promising football player who can't reveal himself yet. Nadolskyi is seen as the future replacement for Vitaly Buyalskyi. They are really very similar in profile, and careers in both are quite difficult at the beginning. Currently, there is no information about the status of Nadolsky in Dynamo, but the premonitions are not very good. We risk losing a valuable staff with whom we did not work well at the time...
Vladyslav Omelchenko
