Ukrainian goalkeeper Yakiv Kinariekin commented on his move to "Villarreal".
"The option with "Villarreal" arose unexpectedly. I thought I would start the season with "Karpaty". I was very comfortable there — before the emergence of this option, I didn’t even think about leaving the team. My father handled that. I don’t know the details. There were no other specific offers. Perhaps there were rumors, but it was "Villarreal" that sent a clear proposal."
I am starting with "Villarreal B", adapting. And then — I will work even harder to improve my qualities and gradually move to the first team.
Such offers happen once in a career — or not at all. My family and I decided to enter a new environment and start a new life. Without such steps, it is hard to reach a new level," Kinariekin said.
