Ionikos Ukrainian defender Dmytro Chygrynskiy told how Josep Guardiola, during his time at Bayern, was interested in his opinion of Shakhtar winger Douglas Costa before his purchase.
"We met by chance in Munich in a restaurant and he was very happy to see me. We talked for almost half an hour, then he called me to ask my opinion about Douglas Costa... I am grateful to him for being my coach and I wish him all the best," Chygrynskiy told Relevo.
