Shakhtar said that "Sudakov will definitely move to a European top club in the summer"

Shakhtar CEO Serhiy Palkin believes that the Donetsk team's midfielder Georgiy Sudakov will go for promotion to a top club this summer.

"Next summer Sudakov has a big chance to move to one of the top clubs. We have had talks with big-name clubs. He will definitely move to a European top club in the summer. When I was at the English championship match between Chelsea and Everton on 15 April, many people asked me about Sudakov.

In January I told Napoli that they could buy him for €50 million, plus bonuses, but the Italians offered €40 million. Then they could close the deal and not miss this unique chance. Now there will be no transfer for 50 million euros. The biggest interest is from English clubs. And we do not want clubs to seek discounts, because we have a war. There is an example of Mudrika," Palkin said in an interview with The Standard.
