Shakhtar CEO Sergei Palkin spoke on Futbol 1 channel about the appointment of Roberto De Zerbi as the team's head coach
“It's very prestigious. At least the Italian and part of the European press, I suppose, will talk every week about our club, about the things we do, how we play and what is happening here. De Zerbi's arrival, I can assure you, will attract a lot of attention – the whole of Europe will scan and assess us. Therefore, it’s prestigious for us. Then, a coach of this level would not have joined us if he hadn't really seen the project called FC Shakhtar that we currently have. He likes the project, the management, he likes our president’s vision of football, the football we showcase and the functionality of our every player. All these factors have come together, we signed a two-year contract, and both parties are happy. When you watch the football De Zerbi plays, he makes you fall in love with his football.”
