The coach believes in the victory of Ukraine in the war
Acting head coach Metalista 1925 Edmar commented on the work in the Kharkov club. Edmar also spoke about the war, supporting the Ukrainian people in difficult times.
“Currently, the conditions for transfers in Ukrainian football are difficult. Especially if you invite legionnaires. Many players are afraid. But I can understand it. On the other hand, we hope that our victory will come soon and everything will be fine. It is difficult to say anything about the Brazilians, it depends on the personal decision of each. You can make an offer, but we understand that the player may not want to go here now.”
“On the other hand, I came to support Ukraine. I can’t fight, I don’t know how to do it, I’ve never held a machine gun in my hands. But I could support a country in football that gave me everything I have in life. My wife is from here, my children were born here.”
“When there are attacks, while staying in shelters during air raids, I have unpleasant sensations. But honestly, I’m not scared anymore. I am sure that victory will be ours, this is 100%. When you do the right thing in life, I think everything changes for the better in life.”
In October, Edmar headed M-1925, replacing Valery Kriventsov. Another ex-player of the Kharkiv club Oleg Golodyuk became his assistant.
Metalist 1925 is 7th in the UPL standings. The Kharkiv club will play its next match on March 4 against Shakhtar.
