Darijo Srna: "Today it is very difficult to find players suitable for Shakhtar, because we are a specific team"

Shakhtar Donetsk football director Darijo Srna commented on the signing of defender Giorgi Gocholeishvili.

- We were looking for the last six months, when we lost Dodo and Vinicius Tobias, a football player in the right-back position. As a result, they found a player with a very great talent who played in Georgia. He fits well with our football, our game system, loves to attack - this is what we need. I liked how Heorhiy showed himself in these first training sessions, and we expect him to grow every day, which will benefit Shakhtar.

As for his qualities, we immediately saw speed, endurance and a good last pass. It is very difficult today to find such players who suit Shakhtar, because we are a specific team with specific football. The choice fell on Gocholeishvili, and I think we were not mistaken. He will work, try and get his chance. We have an excellent team, so it is not difficult for any young player to adapt to Shakhtar. We have normal guys, our heart is always open, so he will quickly get used to it and be useful to the club," said Srna.
