The Donetsk club has strengthened itself before the start of the new championship in the Ukrainian football Premier League.
Shakhtar have signed another new arrival before the start of the 2024/25 season.
According to the press service of the Ukrainian champions, defensive midfielder Bartol Franjic from German Wolfsburg has joined their squad.
The 24-year-old Croatian footballer is on loan until the end of the 2024/25 season with an option to buy the player’s contract outright.
However, the financial details of a possible full transfer are not being reported.

Let’s remember that Wolfsburg bought the Croatian in the summer of 2022 from Dynamo Zagreb for 7.5 million euros, but Franjic has not been the team’s main player this season.
He also spent last season on loan at another German club, Darmstadt, who were relegated from the Bundesliga. There he played 20 matches in all competitions, providing one assist.
We remind you that earlier it became known that Shakhtar signed two newcomers at once.
