There are 63 matches in the championship of Ukraine for the club, 1 scored ball.
We received an exclusive comment by Sergiy Loginov, in which the 34-year-old Central Defender spoke openly about farewell to the team, the historical season, Ruslana Rotan and our own future.
– Sergius, how do you plan to spend your vacation?
– In the Dnieper, with the family. We do not plan to go anywhere.
– You spent two and a half seasons in Alexandria. How can you characterize this stage of your career?
– Successful. He signed a contract with Alexandria at almost one time with Ruslan Rotana and his coaching staff. In Alexandria, we have passed all the stages of the team – from the beginning of work to obtaining silver medals in UPL.
– Have your expectations come from the transition?
– Yes. The last season has become historical for us in general. It is very nice that all the ideas and plans for these two and a half years have been implemented.
– Tell us about the celebration of a silver team. What happened in the locker room after the match with Heather?
– Everyone was happy. I think it was also visible in the interview given by Ruslan Petrovich Rotan in the mix. There was also champagne and tossing the coaching staff. All the fun from the locker room were moved to the mix.
– How was the official award?
– Official part: we were collected, presented medals, then a team event, which was invited by players with families. They gathered with the management and greeted each other.
– I also know that the award of silver medals took place on the City of Alexandria. Tell us about this event.
– Yes, for the city of Alexandria it was a big holiday. They made a gift from the team, let’s say so.
Both fans and residents were satisfied, we also remained with pleasant impressions. Only positive emotions and warm memories – both about this day, about the whole season, and about my whole period in Alexandria.
– Please tell us about cooperation with Ruslan Petrovich.
– Only positive I can say. Demanding coach, the main thing is to fulfill its installations and requirements.
– Is it true that during the game and outside the field, these are two different personalities?
– I would not say that. Like every coach – he demands a maximum of his players. If you do everything right, you follow the structure of the game and discipline, then there are no problems.
– Last season you played in all the matches where you were in the application. This is only three duels, taking into account the cup, and only 160 minutes. Why?
– This is the decision of the coaching staff. If frankly, this season competition in the team is at all positions. I have never discussed rotation or composition. My task is to go to workouts and matches and prove. Who and how much plays – the coach decides.
– Have you not discussed your game practice with Ruslan Petrovich?
– Ruslan Petrovich and I summed up not only the last season, but the whole period of cooperation – over these two and a half years. Thanked each other. It was a great stage. Ruslan Petrovich went on to Polesie, I congratulated him, I think he will work there, I wish him success.
As for me – now I am looking for a new team. Let’s see how it will happen, what options will appear.
FC Alexandria – What match for the entire career in Alexandria did you remember the most?
– Many different matches, both successful and not very. I will not be able to separate one immediately.
-Against Chernomorets you went to the Kapitan bandage field, before that you came out with a bandage against Dnipro-1, your last team. Symbolism?
– We did not discuss it with the trainer – we have the turn of the captains, depending on the composition. I think it is connected with that. I thank the coaching staff for trust, I went out and tried not to let them down.
I do not give it any symbolism. The coach’s decision, no more.
– You have ended a contract with Alexandria. Did you talk to the club about its continuation?
– There were no such conversations in Alexandria.
– That is, they did not refer to you?
– No, there were no initiatives from the management to extend the contract.
– In another interview, you said that by the end of May there would be specifics from other clubs. Did she appear?
– There are interesting options, conversations continue. The championship has now ended and the hottest stage of the transfer period and negotiations is ongoing. I am waiting for more specific offers and options.
– UPL clubs or the first league?
– There is – from the UPL and from the first league.
– It’s not about completing your career yet?
– Yes, I feel more. I have motivation to continue. I don’t think about completing your career.
