A Burkinian communicates with other legionnaires of the Miners who left Ukraine because of the war
Attack Miner Lassina Traore said that he did not want to leave the team even after the full-scale invasion of the Russian army in Ukraine.
“I have never been in this situation before. But the team, management and management of the club gave the motivation to stay. When everything was good, I felt incredible attitude towards myself. In this difficult time, I feel that I cannot let Shakhtar down. My responsibility now is to help them.”
“I spoke several times with Marlon, Pedrinho, Manor Solomon and other guys. They asked me how things are here. I told them everything as it is: it’s not easy for us, but I feel safe and everything is fine with me. If I can play in Ukraine, why can’t they?
In general, I like to follow politics and know what is happening in the world – in Ukraine, France, the USA. It is important to do this because we play football, we are focused on sports and sometimes we can lose touch with the world. After football and the end of a career, we are waiting for the continuation of life, and we must be able to cope with it.
“I hope that the war will end soon and people will be able to return home. Ukraine is a fantastic country. I adore Kyiv and want to return there.”
“I saw several films with Zelensky, then I subscribed to him on Instagram. I’m really his fan. I knew him even before the start of the war.”
Earlier it was reported that Traore will miss the next match between Burkina Faso and Côte d’Ivoire. The striker asked for permission from the coach of the national team to stay at the location of the club in order to quickly gain optimal form.
In the new season, the 21-year-old striker has made 14 appearances for the Pitmen in all competitions. Traore scored three goals and provided one assist.
Shakhtar takes second place in the Premier League. In the next match, the team of Igor Jovicevich will play with Zorya on November 13. The match will be served by Katerina Monzul from Kharkiv.
