Fans of Polissia: "Our position is unequivocal - African legionnaires should be blacklisted"

Polissia fans criticised the club's transfer policy in the context of a full-scale war with Russia.

"Jarju is from Gambia, Aniagboso is from Nigeria, Makuana is from Congo. The boom of African players at FC Polissia is one of the most discussed topics in the Ukrainian media.

The most expensive purchase (600 thousand euros according to Transfermarkt) is Beni Makouana from Montpellier. Last season in the French league, he was only a substitute in 8 matches, was in the shadows and did not prove himself. He played 12 matches for the Congo national team, and did not stand out with his performance. What makes him better than Ukrainians?

However, during the war, children's sports schools in Ukraine receive minimal support. It is difficult for young players to break into the first team of Polissia, where such foreign legionnaires play. The position of the WZTF (the name of the fan group) is unequivocal - African legionnaires should be blacklisted!

And it's not about racism. We want players who are close in spirit and mentality to play for Polissia. There have never been any black players in Zhytomyr, and this is a tradition that distinguishes our club from others.

First of all, selectors should look for new players in Zhytomyr region, in neighbouring regions, that is, historically close to Polissia Krai in spirit. And only then should they pay attention to the whole of Ukraine and Europe," the fans said in a statement on their Instagram page.
