The ex-forward of Dynamo Kyiv Maxim Shatskikh, who is now the coach of Tashkent Pakhtakor, in a commentary to Dynamo.kiev.ua, told what he thinks about the two top transfers of Ukrainian football that took place this week: Viktor Tsygankov to the Spanish Girona ”, and Mikhail Mudryk - to the London Chelsea.
Maxim Shatskikh“The transfers of Mudrik and Tsygankov cannot be compared. It is clear that Mudrik fired - there is something good in him. It's just that clubs like Chelsea won't take players. It will be interesting to see how Mudrik will show himself against this background, in the English championship, which is one of the strongest in Europe. Especially with Chelsea. And then we will draw conclusions.
As for Tsygankov, he had been planning to leave for a long time. It is clear that Girona is not a top club, but it can become just an intermediate stage for Vitya. I said many times: everything is always in the hands of a football player. In the arms, legs and head. So everything will depend on how Tsygankov realizes his potential in Girona. If the mind manages to show itself even in such a mediocre team, then it will very quickly be taken to a more eminent and stronger club.
Now the main thing for Tsygankov is to have a successful start in Girona and show his maximum. And I think everyone knows how he can play football. Viti has everything to make himself known in Girona. I want to wish him that he can fully realize himself there. Although, of course, a lot will also depend on his partners on the football field.
One way or another, Shakhtar and Dynamo have lost their key, high-quality players, and now they will have to look for a replacement," Shatskikh said.
