But they have a similar player in the squad - Gutsulyak, who will probably replace him. He is also left-handed, strong when playing with his back to goal, similar in style.
Having seen Dovbik in matches against Panathinaikos, I am now glad that he won't play against us. He was an important footballer. But the other players are also very good. Only after the first match we will see how the player who will replace him will perform," Trpisovski is quoted by Slavia's official website.
