As Sport.ua has learned, Lisbon's Benfica did not let Andre Vakulyuk join the Ukraine U-17 national team.

André Vakaliuk

Vakulyuk received a call-up to the elite qualifying round for Euro U-17, but the Portuguese club decided not to let the Ukrainian legionnaire go. The fact is that the group of the national team of Ukraine does not play in the approved window from FIFA, but two weeks earlier. Therefore, Benfica decided to keep Vakulyuk at the club.

The U-17 national team started with two victories in the elite round in Greece. First, Yuriy Moroz's team defeated the hosts 2-0, and then defeated Switzerland 3-0. In order to qualify for the Euros, you need to win the group or be among the top 7 out of 8 teams that will take second place.

Andre Vakulyuk is the son of Ukrainian immigrants. He was born in Portugal. In 2024, he received Ukrainian citizenship.
