Olexandr ISHCHENKO: “Boys from our Academy have benchmarks to look up to”

- You must have already heard that Dynamo Kyiv football Academy is one of top 10 football schools in Europe according to the International Centre for Sports. Congratulations!

- Thank you, but I think that the club administration and coaches who have been working for the Academy for many years should be congratulated first. I hope this recognition will be an extra stimulus for us to develop the Academy further.

- Does this recognition mean you are on the right way?

- I hope so. We have reorganized the training process and we hope to see the result soon. We always follow the aspects of the game which are to be worked at.

- In March 28 players represented Dynamo in different Yellow and Blue teams, from U-16 to Ukraine national team. It’s a merit of your Academy…

- We look up to the main squad, six players of which got call-ups to Ukraine national team. It’s a benchmark for boys from the academy.

- Can Dynamo Kyiv football Academy be compared to Barcelona’s famous La Masia?

- We don’t want Dynamo Kyiv Academy to be world famous due to its own distinctive patterns. We don’t want to follow the suit of Barcelona or any other team.
