In this case, they will play only home matches for the first part of the season.
Two clubs Ukrainian Premier League are considering the possibility of holding the autumn part of the season abroad, which would guarantee complete security and the possibility of the arrival of legionnaires, journalist Igor Burbas reports.
“Decisions have not been made yet. But if they manage to implement them, then the first half of the season, these clubs will live in Poland as part of the preparation for international competitions permitted by law. As for the matches of the domestic championship, for this period these clubs will have them purely at home, to which they will bring Ukrainian rivals to themselves, ”Burbas said.
“Now it is at the level of the idea of individual clubs. But it will in no way contradict the regulations as a whole, in which, during martial law, a clause is likely to appear on the possible partial holding of domestic competitions outside the country. It should be prescribed just in case, given the military risks. This point, in fact, will guarantee that the 2022/23 season will definitely play out in any development of the situation. Either on the territory of Ukraine, or beyond its borders.
“In general, by today’s decision of the Ministry of Youth and Sports, all all-Ukrainian competitions are planned to be held at home. As for football, we start in August. The base places at the moment are Kyiv and the west of the country. The presence of spectators is not possible.”
The 2021/22 season in Ukraine ended ahead of schedule due to a full-scale Russian invasion of the country. Shakhtar was declared the winner, Dynamo took second place, Dnipro-1 finished third.
