"There was an offer from the UAF to play for the youth national team of Ukraine. (Mustafayev was born in Ukraine.). I refused because the initiative came earlier from the Association of Football Federations of Azerbaijan.

We agreed that I would play for their team, but it was already late. It was last year, in winter. I was already supposed to go to Azerbaijan, I was called from UAF and offered to go to the youth team. But I have already promised to Azerbaijan and I stayed true to my word," Mustafayev was quoted as saying. FanDay ..
