Ukrainian midfielder of Polish Raków Vladyslav Kochergin spoke about the start of his team's off-season preparation.
"Our mood is to defend the championship title (while "Rakuv" is in fourth place, 9 points behind the leading "Schlensk" - ed.) and fight for the Polish Cup. In the meantime, we are happy to get back to training. We have a training camp in Turkey ahead of us.
One of our opponents in friendlies at the upcoming training camp is Dnipro-1. It will be a very valuable sparring. "Dnipro-1" is also fighting for the championship. This is a very good team, with whom we have already played once at the training camp in Turkey, and I think that we will get a lot of benefit from the upcoming match.
As for my performance in the current season (6 goals and 4 assists - ed.), now I play "eight", not "ten", as it was last season, and for this reason there may be a little less goals. However, we still have a lot of games ahead of us. I want to score goals and give goal assists. I will do everything to make this result even better than the previous one (last season Kochergin scored 12 goals - ed.)," Kochergin said in a commentary to the official website of Rakuv.
