- The question of a return to the Premier League is not yet on the table?
- This question is open. And then we will look at the results. I hope they will be successful. Let's see which top five we`ll end up in the autumn part of the season.
- Tell us about the conditions in which Metalist`s pre-season training camp takes place - the fields, infrastructure, hotel?
- Everything is good enough. We have one good quality field, on which we are training. The hotel has everything we need to recover - swimming pool, sauna. Sometimes we train two times a day. There is a normal work process, for which there are all conditions.
- Does Metalist president Oleksandr Iaroslavskyi participate in the club`s life?
- Of course, he does. If all the conditions for good training are created - it is the merit of the club`s management.
