A stadium sells cheap in Sumy
The Yubileiny Stadium in Sumy was one of the first in Ukraine, built with modern trends in mind (at the time), without running tracks, with covered stands, designed for almost 30,000 fans. However, they didn’t really play in the sand. Local teams, which used to cease to exist, tried several times, regularly visited UPL clubs and played the Super Cup. Now in “Jubilee” it is “Alliance” from the town of Lipovaya Dolina. At the same time, the arena, which belongs to the Sumy Machine Construction Research and Production Association, is arrested. On December 30, the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine will hold an auction for the stadium: the starting price is only five and a half million hryvnia.
