"I won't comment on anything now. Let's see how this story ends," Kharatin said.
The source then spoke to Kolos' sporting director Vitaliy Lysytsky.
- Vitaliy Sergiyovych, I want to know about Ihor Kharatin. Yesterday there was information that he was suspended from training with the first team and transferred to the U-19. Is it true?
- Where did this information come from?
- Mykhailo Spivakovsky said on TaToTake TV.
- Ahhh(laughs). I can give you Spivakovsky's number, call him and ask him why he said that.
- We have already heard the insights, and now we want to get official information from the club.
- If something happens, the club will officially announce it on our website. In the meantime, I don't know why this information appeared.
- Is Haratin training with the first team now?
- Haratin is a player of our club Kolos. Period!
- Why was he not in the application for the cup match against Obolon?
- It was decided so. He was given a rest.
- Who decided - the head coach or the management?
- If you want to know more, ask Spivakovsky. If you want official information, the club will give it to you. But for now, there is no point in talking about it.
- That's why I turned to you, as a representative of the club, to get information.
- When it is necessary, we will officially tell you everything. There is nothing to talk about now.
- So is Kharatin training with the first team or the U-19, because I didn't understand?
- Am I being interrogated?
- No, I'm asking ordinary journalistic questions about Kharatin.
- I have already answered you: if there is official information, we will post it on our website.
- There was also information that some Kolos players do not accept Pozdeyev's coaching ideas. Can you comment on this?
- Everything is fine, we are in the process of working on football. Everyone is unhappy with our recent results, but the team, coaching staff and management are looking for ways out of this situation. I have no doubt that everything will be fine.
