Now the former Dynamo Kyiv midfielder Viktor Tsyhankov gave his first press conference as a player of the Spanish Girona, during which he told when he would be ready to make his debut for this team, and announced his personal goals in it.
“I'm really happy to be here. I am grateful to everyone who participated in this transition and helped it to take place.
I have already had a conversation with the Girona head coach. I saw that he really counts on me and wants to see me as part of his team. This is very important and motivating.
I haven't trained with the team yet, but I hope to be ready to play as soon as possible. Perhaps even for the next match (against Villarreal next Sunday, January 22 - in the 18th round of the Spanish Championship - ed.).
Am I ready to be a leader? I don't want to be a leader, I just want to help the team achieve results in every match, show great football and help them stay in La Liga. And I won’t talk about myself - it’s better for the fans to give me a testimonial when they see me in action.
Why Girona? Because this club really wanted to see me here. In addition, the fact that La Liga is one of the best leagues in the world also played a role. Finally, I really liked the style of football that Girona plays. I attended two home matches of the team and saw how it plays. I hope I will help her play even better," Tsygankov said.
