Arsenal coach Mikel Arteta said that this team proposed to make the Ukrainian Oleksandr Zinchenko the team captain for one match of the Premier League.
To commemorate the anniversary of the start of Russia’s all-out war against Ukraine, Zinchenko captained Leicester (1-0).
“Everything turned out so great because it was the initiative of the players. Martin Odegaard approached me on the eve of the match and said that the team wanted to make such a gesture for Zinchenko. We wanted to show Ukraine how important Alex is to us.”
