The newcomer to Cherkasy LNZ, Ivan Yermachkov, shared with Legioners Ua a story about interest from the German club «Stuttgart».
— There was interest from the German club «Stuttgart». Their second team was very interested in me and showed considerable interest. They clearly told me that their goal in the third league is the top 5. The club was recruiting players who had little playing time as starters for the «reds.» However, the management of «Stuttgart» informed me that I would be a rotation player because, at that time, they already had five defenders. It was an unpleasant moment because I did not want to spend the whole season on the bench and go on the field to play for 5−10 minutes, — said Ivan.
