Grigorchuk: I would support the option of playing in Poland, but playing in Ukraine, in war conditions, is a heroic and patriotic step

New season UPL plan to start in three Ukrainian cities

Chernomorets head coach Roman Grigorchuk shared his opinion on where to spend the next season Ukrainian Premier League.

“I would support the option of playing in Poland because I think it would be better for football in general. Then all the teams would be able to keep legionnaires and a fairly high level of the championship. If the clubs play in Ukraine, then we understand that almost everyone will lose legionnaires, and this, of course, will slightly lower the level of the championship,” Grigorchuk said.

“On the other hand, playing in Ukraine in such a difficult situation, in conditions of war, is a good, positive, heroic and patriotic step in support of our beautiful nation, our military. I like it”.

Today it became known that the 2022/23 season in the Premier League is planned to start in three cities – Kyiv, Lvov and Uzhgorod. Subsequently, the geography of the championship will expand depending on the situation with the fighting in Ukraine.

It was reported that the final vote for the format of the new championship should take place in early July. The start of the new season is scheduled for August 20.

Last football season in Ukraine ended ahead of schedule due to a full-scale Russian invasion of Ukrainian territories.
