Fitness time

The weather still gives the Miners surprises. It has been raining all day long in Belek. To keep the pitch in proper condition, Paulo Fonseca decided to conduct the evening session at a fitness centre. Under the supervision of fitness coaches Nuno Romano and Pedro Moreira, the players strengthened the body muscles, paying special attention to the abs. Fernando trains individually, while Ivan Ordets has rejoined the general group today.

- I’m really happy to start full training! - says Shakhtar defender Ivan Ordets. - I missed a lot, recovering from an injury for nearly half a year. I spent almost the entire vacation in the gym, preparing for the training camp. Currently, I feel some muscle soreness due to the workload, but most importantly, nothing hurts and my leg does not bother me. I think the weather will not affect our training.
 
The team have got a morning session scheduled for January 22. At 16:00, the Orange-and-Blacks will have their first friendly as part of the Turkish training camp, against Hajduk of Croatia.
