Well-known journalist Serhiy Tyshchenko commented on the various New Year's polls for the best footballer of the year.
"Who is the best footballer in Ukraine in 2023? No one can give an objective answer to this question. Tsygankov had a great year in Spain. Dovbyk scored a lot of goals in La Liga in six months. Zinchenko has been playing consistently for the most status club among all Ukrainians who have regular playing practice. Mudryk moved to Chelsea for a crazy amount of money. Mykolenko helped Everton to escape relegation and is now playing a leading role.
How do you make up your mind? I personally don't know. Everyone has to decide for themselves who they like the most. The only thing I can say for sure is that the best footballer in Ukraine does not play in the UPL. Unfortunately, this will be the case in the near future. Only among the legionnaires will we choose the best footballer in the country," Serhiy wrote on Telegram.
