I will support the Youth national team of Ukraine at Euro 2023. It is a pity I will not go. I understand that if I go, I will play there many matches and right after that I will go to the training camp with Bournemouth - I will have a very hard season, it is very hard after an injury. I am afraid that after a couple of months I will lose myself. So I must recover and help the club and the national team with renewed vigor", - "Suspilne" quotes Zabarny.
