The controversy around the cohabitation between the Russian Matvey Safonov and the Ukrainian Illia Zabarnyi is far from over. If the two main concerns avoid evoking this subject in depth, others do not hesitate to advance theories claiming that Zabarnyi did not think they should share the locker room with Safonov. This is what Evgeniy Levchenko, former Ukrainian midfielder who became president of the Dutch players’ union, assured.
«Ilia’s personal position is undeniable. We do not know what agreements have been concluded with PSG. In my opinion, Zabarnyi could have been promised, before the signing of the contract, that Safonov would not be in the team, but what happened will certainly tarnish his image in Ukraine. Could he have changed clubs? This is the case, and PSG simply trapped Illia, who trusted the Qataris to unlock the situation in an almost political context“, He said in comments relayed by Sport.ua.
