On Thursday, the team held two training sessions - morning and evening. In the morning, a group of football players who were not under medical examination went for a run and worked out in the gym, and in the evening, after the run, the main part of the training of both groups took place in the arena due to frosty weather. On Friday, two classes are also scheduled according to the same principle: in the morning a group of football players who were at the medical examination today will work, and in the evening - all together. On Saturday, Dynamo players will also have two training sessions, and on Sunday - one.
Dynamo players work under the guidance of Mircea Lucescu's assistants. The head coach of Dynamo is currently managing the process remotely, being in constant contact with his assistants. Mircea Lucescu will join the team on January 20, the first day of the training camp in Turkey.
It should be noted that on the eve of the start of training, there were changes in the Kiev coaching staff. Oleksandr Shovkovskiy returned to Dynamo, who from 2018 to 2022 was a member of the coaching staff of the national team of Ukraine. Now the legendary player of the White-Blues has become one of the assistants to the head coach Mircea Lucescu.
A number of young Dynamo players, who played for the youth team last season, have been involved in working with the base, and now they have the opportunity to prove themselves to the head coach of the first team. In addition, as we have already reported, midfielder Nazar Voloshin returned from loan at Kryvbas Kryvyi Rih.
After a month-long vacation and the New Year holidays, all the players with a good mood and great desire set to work. The first trainings, as always, are of a retracting nature, so that at the beginning of the training camp the players adapt to intense loads.
In total, 29 football players took part in the lesson - four goalkeepers and 25 field players. After running work, the players also held an intensive warm-up on the street under the guidance of a physical training coach. In the arena, the players worked with balls, in particular, they practiced dribbling, short and medium passes. Then came the turn of one of the most common and favorite exercises for football players - squares, when you need to keep partners in the center with one-touch passes for as long as possible. The lesson ended with ball control practice in two groups of five by five players with three neutrals, and after a while the teams changed places.
Recall that in the coming days, Dynamo will work at the club base, and on January 20, it is planned to leave for a training camp in Turkey, where the team will continue training. The first sparring partners of Dynamo at the training camp are already known.
