Vice-President of Krivbass Gagarin: We are exploring the option of playing European Cup matches in Germany

Krivorozhans are also looking for additional specialists for the club structure

Vice President Krivbassa Artem Gagarin said that the club is working on an option for holding matches European Cups in Germany, in case of qualification of the team at the end of the season.

“We will qualify for European competition and will there be any changes? It doesn’t happen that way. To reach the European Cups, changes are needed now. We are already looking for additional specialists for the club structure, and in some places we are expanding as a separate marketing department. Now we are doing a lot of work: at our club arenas, with our partners. We must approach the European Cups ready. Unfortunately, not all Ukrainian clubs do this. This happened if we take previous seasons.”

“Now we are more specifically exploring the option of playing in Germany. Firstly, there are many industrial cities there, such as Krivoy Rog. Secondly, there are many clubs with a similar history. Even the giants that are now on the verge of extinction. For them, the story of the revival of Krivbass is like a ray of hope that everything will be fine for them too. It may take seven years, but everything will be.”

“We also considered the option of playing in Poland and even England. Yes, Britain is far away, but they love football very much there, and in general they support Ukraine very much, so we can still return to this option.”

“We have almost completed the Gornyak stadium. The new stand is 80 percent complete. If it weren’t for the war, there would already be two of them, and then the heating of the field. We are planning to start building another grandstand from the foundation, which will perform another important function – a bomb shelter. This will increase the number of spectators at the stadium.”

“For me, among my desired opponents, everything is clear and precise: Liverpool, Barcelona. It would be great to see Krivbass on the field against these top clubs. But precisely in Krivoy Rog. We recently played with the girls, ZhFK Krivbass, in the Champions League. But there is no profit from this at all, only costs.”

Krivbass ranks second in the Ukrainian Premier League with 43 points. In the next round, Yuri Vernidub’s team will play away against Veres on March 30.
