Oleksandr Aliev: "Yes, Milevskyi was in a coma"

Former Dynamo Kyiv midfielder Oleksandr Aliev has revealed the latest news about the situation with his former team-mate Artem Milevskiy in the capital.

"Yes, Milevsky was in a coma. Now I am at his place every day. Thank God, he is recovering, he is being treated.

It is clear, he has a lot of well-wishers, many are interested in his condition. But there are also many who wish him harm. A lot of them.

He needs to readjust, forget that he was a footballer. That time has passed. Now he's in a new phase of his life. Just like me. Life doesn't end here. Maybe now life will be even better than what it was before, in football.

Yes, it's hard to rebuild, but you have to. That's why you are a man," Aliev said in an interview with journalist Dmitri Gordon.
