Oleksandriya goalkeeper Mykyta Shevchenko recalled the story of his loan move from Shakhtar to Zorya in 2013.
Mykyta Shevchenko (photo: shakhtar.com)- "Oh, it was an interesting case! I can say that I took the last ticket in the compartment near the toilet. We lost 2-8 to Dynamo in Kyiv with Shakhtar's double. Vasya Kobin and Alan Patrick played for us from the first team. Dynamo also had a good squad - both wingers Artem Milevskyi and Oleksandr Aliev were running. That's how we were beaten.
We came back to Donetsk, Lucescu called us and gave us a very good thrashing. And that was it. I did not play, nothing. It was already March and the transfer window was closing. At the last moment, my agent Vadym Shabliy called me and offered me the option of joining Zorya. I remember that my father was categorically against it and refused. I still agreed and said: "If I don't play here, then look for a job at Stirol in Horlivka, where I will produce vitamin C pills," said Nikita.
