Europa League
Jozsef SABO: “God forbid Shakhtar to sell Mudrik for 25-30 million”
Former head coach of the Kyiv “Dynamo” and the Ukrainian national team Jozsef Szabo He evaluated Shakhtar’s next rival in the European competition.
– What can you say about Shakhtar’s prospects in competition with Rennes?
– For the Donetsk team, this is a normal draw. We will see later how they will take a closer look at the matches against the French. Ultimately, this fact will also matter if Shakhtar sells Mudrik. There was a lot of noise around this man: They say he’s already worth 100m euros. But this, in my opinion, is too much. God forbid Donetsk club sell him for 25-30 million.
But back to Rennes. I repeat: this is a normal opponent and I think Shakhtar can beat him. We’ve seen Rennes in their game against Dynamo – they’re a good team. At the Championships in France, she shares the third-fourth place showing her high level. Considering that Shakhtar will face Rennes only in the second half of February, there is still time for the Pitmen’s coaches to examine the opponent most thoroughly. It is quite possible that Igor Jovicevich talked with the Dynamo coaches about the features of the game and the players of the French team.
I can say that February has traditionally not been an easy month for our teams. I don’t know how Shakhtar will prepare for the European Cup matches and the spring part of the championship. In the first match, the miners must host their opponent in the stadium that serves as their home stadium. “I understand that this will be the Pepsi Arena in Warsaw,” said Szabo.
Earlier, insider Fabrizio Romano said that Shakhtar would want more than 60-65m euros for Mudrik.

Ukrainian defender Nottingham Forest Alexander Zinchenko He shared his feelings after his team beat Utrecht (2:1) in the main round of the Europa League.
“It’s a great feeling. First of all, I’m back. Secondly, it’s an incredible feeling to win a match. Getting three points today was very important for us. As you can see, it was a difficult match. But at the end of the match, I think we got what we wanted and let’s continue like that.”
“As a defender you always want to keep a clean sheet, but unfortunately we couldn’t do that today. So it’s something we need to work on in the future.”
“This is one of those matches where whoever wins the most challenges in different areas of the field will win the match. Today we won many more goals which helped us a lot in the game. But to be honest, even the opportunities we created, including me, we should have scored and finished this match earlier,” said Zinchenko.
Nottingham Forest is in 11th place in the rankings with 11 points after 6 matches in the Europa League this season.
