18-year-old Ukrainian footballer Artur Uvarov is on view at its zenith.
Until April 2022, Uvarov played in one of the Dynamo youth teams. However, the people of Kiev soon learned that Artur was the son of Maxim Uvarov, who is the deputy head of the “People’s Council Committee” of the so-called “LPR” on issues of state security and defense, the work of law enforcement agencies and the judiciary, and the rule of law. For this reason, Artur Uvarov was expelled from the structure of the club:
«FC “Dynamo” (Kyiv) officially declares that there is no place in the structure of the club for people opposed to the Independence, Integrity and Sovereignty of Ukraine! During the terrible war with the Russian occupier, Artur Uvarov had to personally contact the club’s management and confess to his father’s participation in the military aggression against Ukraine.
FC “Dynamo” (Kyiv) is the flagship of Ukrainian football, which has brought up more than a hundred players who represented the national team of our country at different times. The club is not going to stop supporting and financing the Ukrainian people in a terrible war with the Russian occupier, despising every person who opposes the Independence of Ukraine and does not recognize its territorial integrity.
Glory to Ukraine! Glory to our heroes!is an excerpt from Kyiv club statements.
The fact that Uvarov is on trial in a team from St. Petersburg is reported by Russian media.
