"My wife and I were very happy about it" - Drambayev's reaction to the information about his early return to Shakhtar

Shakhtar Donetsk defender Oleksandr Drambayev, who is currently playing on loan for Croatian side Osijek, commented on the press reports that he would allegedly return to the Pitmen's squad ahead of schedule.

According to the Croatian media, the player does not meet the expectations of Osijek's management, so the club may terminate his contract, which runs until 30 June 2024, ahead of schedule in the winter.

"This is news to me, as well as to my wife. It made us laugh a lot. It's interesting that a journalist was the first to know about it, and I didn't even hear it in the club. I will say more, I went with Osiek to the training camp. We play and train, and I'm doing well.

I don't want to offend anyone, the journalist probably knows a little more than I do. It was interesting and fun to read something about me that even I don't know - that I'm going somewhere else. I'm in Osijek now, I have a contract with the club, and I'm working hard," Drambayev said.
