According to the available information, after a relapse of an old injury, he continues to work out on an individual programme with a rehabilitator and will definitely not be able to play in the decisive match of the season for Vorskla - the Ukrainian Cup final with Shakhtar Donetsk, which will be held on 15 May in Rivne.

But another experienced player of "Vorskla" - midfielder Oleksandr Sklyar, after a serious facial injury, received in the calendar match of the 19th matchday of the Ukrainian championship with "Veres", has already recovered, returned to the general group and, most likely, will be included in the application for the match of the 27th matchday against Kharkiv "Metalist 1925", which will be held on May 4. But if Sklyar will be trusted with a place on the field, he will play in a protective mask.
