I used to play football, I have been a Shakhtar fan since childhood, and now to be a part of this club is something extraordinary. It was very nice to meet the players today, and especially Andrii Piatov
Oleksandr Kovalchuk, player of Shakhtar team for amputee soldiers:
– I was born in Varash, Rivne region, then moved to Cherkasy region with my parents. I was a conscript in the military, and when a full-scale war started, I decided to sign a contract and went to fight. I was wounded in the battle in the Serebrianskyi forest near Kreminna. I used to play football, I have been a Shakhtar fan since childhood, and now to be a part of this club is something extraordinary. It was very nice to meet the players today, and especially Andrii Piatov. I played in the goal and was his fan, was inspired by him. In our current team, we have not yet decided on the positions, we are still training – we are learning to move correctly, because it is not so easy to do it with crutches, we are passing the ball. First impressions are great!

I am very glad to come here and meet the team, to see Rakitskyi, Piatov, who played back in Donetsk, as well as young players. It is cool to become a part of your favourite club, to experience all the emotions with them
Yaroslav Poliezhaiev, player of Shakhtar team for amputee soldiers:
– I am from Donetsk region, I am 28 years old. I saw that Shakhtar is building a team and decided to join. I visited Donbas Arena even before the war, those were quiet, peaceful times. And today I am very glad to come here and meet the team, to see Rakitskyi, Piatov, who played back in Donetsk, as well as young players. It is cool to become a part of your favourite club, to experience all the emotions with them. We are also already building the core of the team, adjusting the training process. The atmosphere in the team is good, so we are looking forward to the matches and maybe the championship.
