This week, many media outlets have reported that Karpaty are showing interest in their former player, 35-year-old Oleksandr Gladkiy, who is out of contract with Chornomorets Odessa.
- I don't even know who is dealing with this misinformation. The Lviv club has not approached Gladkiy with any offers.
- Perhaps this is due to the fact that he is now in search of a club and once played in Karpaty.
- I have nothing against Gladky, he was a strong forward in his time, but his best matches are behind him. Moreover, Karpaty are building a capable team with an emphasis on young players.
- But Karpaty are still searching for a textured striker, who will resemble the Brazilian Batista, who once scored a lot for the Green-Whites?
- And it looks like we have found such a forward. I do not want to get ahead of what is happening, but I hope that next week he will appear at Karpaty.
- Are we talking about a foreigner?
- He is from Brazil, but he is not the forward we were waiting for before the training camp in Uzhgorod.
- Are there no changes in the preparation plans for the opening game of the first league championship with Khust?
- Yes, on 23 July in Kovel we play a charity match with a local team. All the money earned will be transferred to help the AFU.
