After a 1-0 win over Kudrivka in the UPL match, LNZ coach Vitaly Ponomariov commented on the rumors about the transfer of the leading attacking player Prosper Oba to Shakhtar, which is being actively talked about this week.
“He is still a LNZ player. They are interested. There will be official information – then we will discuss. As long as he is a LNZ player, he plays for us. You can’t get attached to one player, because there are no irreplaceable ones.”
“It is necessary to look for other players, to develop the existing ones. I don’t think this is a problem,” Ponomaryev said.
It is reported that Shakhtar will pay about 3-4 million euros for Prosper.
In the current season, 22-year-old Oba scored 8 goals and made 2 assists.
