Former Dynamo forward Kevin Kuranyi said that he helped to transfer Russian forward Alexander Kokorin to Aris.
On August 31, 31-year-old Kokorin moved to Aris from Fiorentina on loan until the end of the 2022/23 season.
– Did you really take part in the transfer of Kokorin to Aris?
– Yes. I know Kokorin, the management and a couple of other people at Aris well. They were looking for a striker with the qualities that Kokorin has.
Why did you decide to take part in the deal?
“That’s my job, ha ha. This is a good deal, everyone can benefit from it. Kokorin has not played for the past two years, and now it is important for him to be in the cage and play. I am sure that he will succeed in Aris. Everyone will be fine.
— Were there other options?
— Yes, there were proposals from Russia and Turkey. But we thought that the best combo would be with Aris – coach [Шпилевский] and the players are well matched. Everyone is sure that Kokorin will be able to get in shape, come back stronger and restart his career, ”Sport24 quotes Kuranyi.
In the second round of the Cypriot Championship, Aris will play at home with Olympiakos from Nicosia. The meeting will take place on Friday, September 2.

Roma’s Ukrainian striker Artem Dovbik According to Il Tempo, he will have to undergo surgery.
It turned out that the injury the 28-year-old striker received in the match against Lecce in the 19th round of the Italian Serie A was more serious than expected. After new tests, Roma and the player decided to undergo surgery to remove the musculotendinous lesion on the left thigh.
Therefore, Dovbik will probably not be able to help the Ukrainian national team in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. The striker is unlikely to recover for the match against the Swedish national team on March 26.
Dovbik was injured in the match between Lecce and Roma in the 19th round of Serie A on January 6. Artem scored in the 71st minute, setting the final score of the match (2:0), and left the field due to injury in the 86th minute.
Artem played 13 matches for Wolves in the Italian Championship this season, scoring 3 goals and making 1 assist.

Former coach of the Ukrainian national team Jozsef Szabo Meta.ua has exclusively chosen the version of the three best Ukrainian football players of this season for its website.
“In the first row, Ilya Zabarny is almost out of the competition,” Sabo said. – As far as I remember, there has been no regression in the game yet. Yes, the defender had unimpressive tackles, but these were isolated cases. But he’s only 23 years old. The contract with Paris Saint-Germain shows that this football player is currently one of the best in Europe. And do not forget that at that age he played 55 matches for the Ukrainian national team.
I will give second place to Ruslan Malinovsky, who seems to have found a second youth after being injured. This guy’s head is clear, making great passes is not difficult for a midfielder. Largely thanks to Malinovsky’s effective play, the Ukrainian national team managed to qualify for the play-offs in the 2026 World Cup qualifying tournament.
The third will be Everton’s left back Vitaly Mikolenko. He is a consistent starter for his team. And no matter what position the team is in, the English league is still the strongest league in Europe. He is an irreplaceable football player in the national team.
