Honored coach of Ukraine Myron Markevych stated that Yevhen Konoplyanka could calmly continue his career in the Ukrainian championship.

"He could calmly play in our UPL now. Of course, he needs to prepare a bit, but with his skill, he could play comfortably. He has left a very strong mark in history," Markevych said.
In the summer of 2024, the 35-year-old Konoplyanka announced his retirement from professional football.
