The son of the outstanding ex-player of Kyiv "Dynamo" Oleh Salenko, Roman, who is now a player of the "Dynamo U-19" team, gave an interview to the "dynamo__kyiv.fan" resource on Instagram.
— You are 17 years old, are you currently studying somewhere?
— Yes, this year he entered the National Pedagogical University named after M.P. Drahomanov for the specialty "Physical education and sports".
— Oh, maybe you see yourself as a football coach in the future?
- Yes of course. After a good football career as a player, I would like to see myself as a coach.
— 3 How many years have you been playing football? And what was your first club?
— At the age of seven, my father took me to my first club, Dynamo Kyiv, as I am currently a player of this club. My father wanted, and still wants, to see me as a good player.
— If not football, then what?
— It is difficult to answer this question. I do not imagine myself in any other field.
— What does football mean to you personally?
— Football has become a big part of my life. Even when there were breaks, I couldn't hold back, I always wanted to go out on the field and kick the ball. Your dedication and hard work make football a great pleasure. I want to strive for great success. I work, work and work again.
— And what do you like to do in your spare time, Roman?
— I am a person who is strongly attached to communication. It is very important for me when there is someone from parents, relatives or friends to talk to.
I don't give up computer games, and I also constantly develop myself by reading books or playing board games.
- Maybe there is a book or a game that you would recommend?
— I would like to recommend two books: "The Moon on the Edge" by Jesse Itzler and "The Mind of Champions" by Jim Afremov. Now I am trying to develop myself in chess, a very difficult game, but quite interesting.
