“It’s time for new challenges. Football shaped me not only as a player, but also as a person.
I am a happy football player: I don’t regret anything and I wouldn’t change anything. I accept my career as it was – with moments of joy and success, but also with those more difficult stages that taught me a lot.
From the bottom of my heart, I thank the fans who were there for me in good times and bad, to all the football players with whom I had the honor to share the field, and to everyone who supported me along the way.
Thanks to my family and my beloved wife – without you, none of this would have made sense.
Football is worth playing…” — Krykhovyak wrote.
