Andriy Shevchenko named the list of players called up for the match with Italy and the Czech Republic

To participate in the training camp, which will take place from October 8 to 16 and during which our team will play two matches - a friendly match against Italy on October 10 in Genoa and the League of Nations match against the Czech Republic on October 16 in Kharkov, head coach of the national team of Ukraine Andriy Shevchenko called 24 players.

The players from the foreign championships, who were called up by the manager earlier, were joined by players playing in the Ukrainian Premier League. Also invited were two legionnaires, previously included in the reserve list - Igor Plastun from the Belgian "Ghent" and Ivan Petryak from the Hungarian "Ferencvaros".

For 28-year-old Igor Plastun, this is the first challenge to the main team of the country. At one time, the Kyivan played 15 matches for the youth national teams of Ukraine U-20 and U-21. Note the return to the ranks of the blue and yellow Dynamo Artem Besedin, who recovered from injury, as well as midfielder Ivan Petryak, who last received an invitation to the first training camp this year - in March. However, Ivan's transfer to Ferencvaros and the bright game for the Hungarian club again attracted the attention of the coaching staff.  

The Ukraine squad:

Goalkeepers: Andriy PYATOV (Shakhtar Donetsk), Denis BOYKO (Dynamo Kyiv), Andriy LUNIN (Leganes, Spain).

Defenders: Yaroslav RAKITSKY, Bohdan BUTKO, Serhiy KRYVTSOV, Mykola MATVIENKO (all - Shakhtar Donetsk), Mykita BURDA (Dynamo Kyiv), Oleksandr KARAVAYEV (Zorya Luhansk), Vasyl KRAVYATS (KORAVETS) (Ghent, Belgium).
