Ukrainian gymnast Oleg Vernyaev expressed a desire to speak at Olympics 2028 in Los Angeles. For the athlete, according to him, this will be a very important event in his career.

“I would like you to see [на ОИ-2028]because there is time, strength and desire. I still want to study. Age is only in our heads.”

“Now I just need to be even more professional about my health, take even more care of myself in terms of treatment, vitamins, and be very careful. Without youthful adventurism. But I can’t train only according to a plan, I want to try something stupid and extreme.”

“When I get in shape, I always want to try something new. But I need to be more focused. And God willing, everything will work out. I will do everything possible to reach the Olympic Games and compete in Los Angeles.”

At the 2024 Games in Paris, Verniaiev took fifth place in the pommel horse. The Ukrainian also finished eighth in the individual all-around and parallel bars. As part of the Ukrainian national team, Oleg took fifth place in the team all-around final.

The Los Angeles Olympic Games are scheduled to take place from July 14 to 30, 2028.
