Former coach of the Ukrainian U21 national team Alexander Golovko He recalled the first time he invited Alexander Zinchenko to the team in 2014.
“There was a legendary story. Valera Kryventsov told me that there is an interesting guy and you should pay attention to him. He tried to do everything quickly, with a touch, but did not have time. I failed once, I failed twice … But every cloud has a silver lining.
Petrakov goes to the World Cup in New Zealand and takes Besedin, Luchkevich and Kovalenko. And we only have one selection for the elite round, we need players. We started looking, we decided to try to find Zina. Found in “Ufa”. Calls, conversations, meetings with agents began, they called Moscow, security guarantees, it was 2014. A whole special operation. Sanya will tell you better than anyone.
Now he is a Ukrainian national team player with a Ukrainian heart and he is ready to be the captain of this team. You are ready to realize yourself. And, just in case, he plays for a team led by Guardiola.
He made mistakes both with me and with the team. But he recognized them when he got to the youth team, “said Golovko.
Zinchenko has 8 appearances for the Ukraine U21 team, where he scored one goal.
