Selyuk: “It’s too early for Zakharyan to go to Chelsea”

Football agent Dmitry Selyuk commented on the imminent transfer of the Dinamo midfielder Arsen Zakharyan at Chelsea.

Sure, the English league is a tasty morsel for any footballer, but we see that Nikola Vlašić has moved to West Ham, and is now already playing for Torino. Thomas Tuchel is a great coach, but Premier League power tournament and Zakharyan is not a power player. I know for a fact that there is interest in Zakharyan from England. Maybe it’s a little early for him to go there.

At a young age, players who moved to Chelsea usually played in the U21, U23. After that, it was difficult for them to pack their bags and go to another club. Zakharyan has to decide for himself, so that later he doesn’t think he has missed the opportunity. He is such an age that it is important for him to play. He will have offers in a year, but he should move as a combat unit and not sit on the bench.

On the one hand it is prestigious, chic and very good. It’s great that it has an offer, but you have to think twice. Arsene can go, try his hand, then, in this case, he can return. I think it’s too early for him.

Calls to remove Russia’s partners sound like desperation – Svishchev

Requests by Ukrainian officials to impose sanctions against Russia’s partners after the renewed admission of Russian athletes to competitions do not find understanding and seem like a gesture of desperation. This opinion was expressed by the first deputy chairman of the State Duma Committee on Physical Culture and Sports Dmitry Svishchev.

Former president of the Ukrainian Football Federation Andrei Shevchenko called for sanctions and the removal from participation in sports competitions of representatives of countries supporting Russia.

“These are already some gestures of desperation. Our athletes are increasingly allowed to participate in international competitions; there are no conflicts or boycotts. Athletes even communicate with each other, this does not bring negative consequences. The appeals of Ukrainians to remove our athletes from every part of the world no longer find understanding among appropriate sports officials. Therefore, such appeals already seem desperate,” Svishchev said.

Shevchenko made statements about the Ukraine-Sweden match in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers

UAF President Andrey Shevchenko He talked about the match against the Swedish national team in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.

“When we were drawn against Sweden we probably faced our toughest opponent. I have great respect for Swedish football, you have always had good national teams and great players.”

“It’s always difficult to face Scandinavian teams, even though you don’t qualify for the World Cup, because you have so much quality, character and identity. This is similar to us to some extent. I don’t think there are favourites. In the end it all depends on the details, the injury situation and the preparations,” said Shevchenko.

In case of victory, Ukraine will play with the winner of the Poland-Albania doubles for a ticket to the World Cup. Ukraine will play the final match at home on March 31, again conditionally.

In addition to the 12 teams that finished second in their groups, the 4 winners of the Nations League quartet will also participate in the play-offs. All 16 participants are divided into 4 paths. Each route will include a semi-final and a final. The semi-finals will be held on March 26, and the finals will be held on March 31, 2026.
