Football agent Igor Kryvenko said what to expect on the transfer market in the winter off-season.
Shakhtar will not let Mudrik go for the money they are offering now. 100 million euros is an inadequate price. A player from the Ukrainian championship cannot cost more than, for example, from Holland. You really have to look at things. There is a market value and the miners seem to be taking the numbers out of thin air. The boy in the “golden cage”. I know for sure that in the summer the Englishman Brentford offered good money for Mudrik, but the Pitmen refused. It seems they want to win back on their talent what they have lost in past failed transfers.
I also think that Dynamo will not sell Tsygankov and Dnipro-1 – Dovbik. Leaders will be maintained to fix tournament issues. It is important, it seems to me that they are asking for figures that are adequate for the market, and they are not 100 million. True, in six months the contract ends with Tsygankov, a year later – with Dovbik. They can leave as a free agent. However, this is not a big secret in the world of football.
I don’t think any stars will come to Ukraine or, conversely, there will be a big move in the opposite direction. I give you one percent. It is possible that some of the rented people will return to Ukraine, but there will be absolutely no serious flow from abroad. No one is in a hurry to play to the sound of sirens. This is the main reason for the low transfer activity.”
