Olexandr KHATSKEVYCH: “It was the first training session of the kind, but I hope not the last one”

- Why were Mbokani and Moraes absent?

- Moraes has left for Serbia to consult a doctor. Mbokani has some passport issues, so he needs a new one. He’ll come back on Sunday.

- Do players like such unusual training sessions?

- At first young players were a bit nervous, but when we started doing game exercises they calmed down and enjoyed the process.

- Is it important for youngsters to know first team coaches follow them?

- Sure! I also used to be a young player and I know they’ll remember such moments forever. It was the first training session of the kind, but I hope not the last one.

- What’s particularly useful about such training sessions?

- Next year these players will join U-19 team, so I’m sure such training sessions are vital for them. It’s a good motivation.

- Being this age Andriy Shevchenko was making his first steps in Dynamo first team. Can any of these guys achieve something similar?

- They can. There are many creative players in this age group. They’re talented, so they perform for national youth teams.
