The German football union is considering the naturalization of the Ukrainian forward of Bayer Leverkusen, Artem Stepanov. This was reported by commentator Viktor Vatsko.
“Several people connected to Ukrainian football, who are not related to each other, confirmed the information to me: Stepanov is indeed wanted to play for the German national team. This is serious,” Vatsko said on the air of his author’s program on YouTube.
Let us remind you that 17-year-old Stepanov is a graduate of the Shakhtar Academy. In the summer of 2022, the forward transferred to the Leverkusen club and recently made his debut for the first team in a Champions League match.
