- First of all, everyone is interested in how you feel at Dynamo Kyiv, it's no secret that most of the players at Dynamo are Ukrainians, how do you feel in such a team, do you have any problems in communication?

- First of all, thank you for everything, yes, I have problems with adapting to the level of the language, but I'm used to it, I'm starting to understand some words.

- Dynamo Kyiv is a team that constantly fights for medals, but I wonder what goals Samba Diallo sets for himself as a player, maybe you plan to score 10 goals next year or do you want to play all the games in the first team?

- "Dynamo is a great team, of course, all the players want to play now, so my goal is to get the maximum time first, to try to help the team go up so that the coach can trust me.

- Who is your favourite player now and which Dynamo player do you look up to and want to be like?

- Sadio Mane is my idol. There are many players at Dynamo who I admire for their talent and their personality off the pitch, such as Shaparenko, Yarmolenko and Vicharenko.

- I think this is an important topic, unfortunately it still exists in Ukraine, I want to ask you if you have experienced racism in our country?

- No, no, I have not encountered racism yet.

- You are from Senegal and often play for the Senegalese national team, can you tell me what your Senegalese partners tell you, what they say about Ukraine, are they not afraid that you play in a country where there is a war?

- Honestly, yes, and it's normal, everyone is afraid of losing a child, but I pray that peace will prevail in Ukraine.

- You have already made your debut in the first team of Dynamo Kyiv, what can you say about the level of Ukrainian football, which team can you compare it to?

- There are good players, great players even in the championship with teams of different classes, the level of the league is high.

- Do you have a desire to leave Dynamo because Lucescu doesn't give you stable playing time, or do you want to stay and fight for a place in the first team?

- As I said, all the players want to play, we have to work to give our best, and the rest is the choice of the coach whom we respect.

- Who is your best friend at Dynamo, maybe several of them?

- Yes, I can say that it's even all the players!

- How would you describe Andriy Yarmolenko?

- He is, of course, a legend and has a lot of experience, you always learn something from him in training.

- If you could play for any football club in the world, which one would you choose?

- I don't think about it, I have a contract with Dynamo and I respect this team, I think it's wrong to think about other teams when you have a valid contract.

- What do you like to do outside of football?

- In my free time, I go on social media. I also spend time with my friends, family and friends.

- Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo?

- Sadio Mane (laughs).
