Rotan: Mudrik held the second training session in the general group, we will make a decision on his participation before the match with France

Winger missed Euro 2023 group stage due to injury

Head coach of the Ukrainian national team U-21 Ruslan Rotan said that the winger Mikhail Mudrik has a chance to play with France national team in the quarterfinals European Youth Championship 2023.

“Thank God, he is already holding his second training session in the main group, so this pleases us. Will he play France? Potentially everyone can play. We still have a day, we will assess the situation, how the guys have recovered. Of course, we will talk a little with the doctors and make a decision on the eve of the match.”

“Yes, it is true that the Chelsea doctors came. Our doctors worked with them. In principle, the Chelsea doctor came and saw that our specialists were doing everything right. It was one day for checking and getting to know the doctors. As you can see, fortunately, our doctors put Mikhail on his feet during this time.”

“Bogdan Vyunyk has a hand injury. They did an MRI and everything seemed fine. But at the last training session, he fell again, so closer to the match we will see what condition he is in. We will consult with doctors and make a decision. As for others, some players have minor injuries, but the guys are seriously torn [играть] – it is most important”.

“Let’s put it this way: before this match we had more time to prepare. If we had taken first place in the group, then we would have had less rest for a day. It so happened that we became the second, we have already arrived in Cluj-Napoca, and we have more time to recover. In principle, the guys have already been restored, everything is fine. Some have minor injuries, but I think everything will be fine until the match.”

Mudrik missed the matches of the youth team in the group stage of Euro 2023. Earlier it was reported that Mikhail started training in the general group.

On Friday evening, the delegation of the youth team of Ukraine moved from Bucharest to Cluj-Napoca, where the match with France will take place. The fight will take place on July 2, starting at 22:00 Kyiv time.

The winner of the France-Ukraine pair in the 1/2 finals will play with the best in the confrontation Spain-Switzerland. The semi-final match will take place on July 5 in Bucharest.

The 2023 European Championship final is scheduled for July 8 in Batumi. Recall that the three best teams of the tournament, except for France and England, will receive tickets to the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris.
