According to the publication, the striker has already encountered serious problems while communicating with teammates, which, among other things, affect his game. The source notes that in the recent match of the 1st round of the Italian championship with "Cagliari" (0:0) Dovbik had difficulty understanding the instructions of his teammates, and, for example, Lorenzo Pellegrini had to gesture to the Ukrainian to explain his mistakes.

It is reported that Dovbik is determined to overcome the language barrier as quickly as possible. His wife Yulia, who started learning Italian a few months ago and recently increased the intensity of lessons, is helping him to do so.
