Yuriy Bereza, the honorary president of Dnipro 1, has confirmed the information about the club's transfer ban by FIFA and that it is connected, in particular, with the claims of former head coach Ihor Jovicevic.
Yuri Bereza- Can you confirm or deny the information about the transfer ban of Dnipro-1?
- I can confirm. We got the ban after our legal battles with Mr Jovicevic. It is from him. I think we will close this issue
- Is Jovicevic the only one involved in this case? Are there any other players or coaches with complaints?
- The main one is Jovicevic.
- You said you would close this matter. What are your predictions on when that might happen? Will the club manage before the transfer window starts?
- I think, perhaps, even before the New Year we will close it. Now we are undergoing an audit. I think that Jovicevic has done us the biggest tripping. It's very interesting. The moment is that, you know, left the club in the middle of the road. Then there's more... There are moments. Jovicevic is the main figure there.
- But Dnipro-1 is sure that this is a case that you will close calmly and easily?
- Yes. We will close it, of course. I knew right away that it would end in his favour, because, like, yes, we owe money. But, you know, there are no convictions for "immorality of deeds".
- This situation does not affect the transfer plans of Dnipro-1?
- No.
