Ukrainian midfielder Viktor Kovalenko, who was diagnosed with coronavirus, returned to Ukraine on a UAF charter flight.
Senior manager Alexey Targonsky spoke about the return of the players.
“Immediately after five representatives of the Ukrainian national team were tested positive for COVID-19, we discovered the procedure by which collections could be delivered home.
First of all, it was necessary to wait for permission from the local authorities for infected people to leave the territory of Germany. On the day of the game, November 14, a representative of the local authorities in Leipzig announced that the permit had been received and that the boys were to leave the country next Monday.
The Football Association of Ukraine immediately ordered a 180-seat Embraer plane, which, according to medical protocol, was ready to transport the collections to Kiev.
Parallel to us, he contacted English West Ham, who said that he was taking over the organization of the delivery of his player, Andrey Yarmolenko, directly to London. Yarmolenko, by the way, flew to London this morning, as did Shakhtar representative Viktor Kovalenko in a UAF-organized letter to Kiev.
Along with Viktor, three Dynamo players were supposed to fly: Viktor Tsygankov, Sergei Sidorchuk and Vadim Komardin. We planned to take off on Sunday morning so the guys could quietly watch the Germany-Ukraine game in their hotel rooms and not go to the airport late at night, as it really happened. There was no need to urgently evacuate the Dynamo on Saturday night, “Targonsky said.
It was previously reported that the head coach of the national team Andriy Shevchenko invited three youth players to the team’s camp.
