Jozsef Szabo proposes combining Lviv and Karpaty

The former head coach of Dynamo Kyiv and the Ukrainian national team, Yozhef Sabo, commented on the news that Lviv will cease to exist after the end of the current season.

"I believe that the Premier League should already be expanded. At least up to 18 teams. Poles'e" and "Obolon" have already secured a ticket to the UPL. There are still chances for Karpaty from Lviv to break into the elite.

Lviv is no more, and if Karpaty don`t make it... Such a big, nice, football city as Lviv can`t be left without football. Well, there`s "Rukh", but...

We should do something. As an option we could combine what would be left of "Lviv" and "Karpaty" into one team: players, material and technical base and create a strong team, which is interesting to watch. To fight for high places", - Ukrainian Football quotes Sabo as saying.
