The Donetsk club spoke about the position of the team legionnaires about the war in Ukraine.
Shakhtar failed in the conduct of Brazil’s legionnaires after the start of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
According to the club’s general director Sergei Palkin, only one foreign player, Marlon, agreed to take part in the charity tour with the Pitmen.
All the other Brazilians just turned their backs on the Ukrainian club in difficult times.
“On the one hand, I understand them, but on the other hand, I feel bad about it. It’s bad because Shakhtar did a lot for them. To be able to play in these trials.
On the other hand, I understand that this is not their war, they have a motto: “My hut is on the edge, I don’t need it.” Therefore, we have what we have. This is predictable.
I didn’t expect one of them to come and support us. The only Brazilian who has agreed and should be in the near future is Marlon, ”Palkin told the Denisov Time program.
