Mykola Pavlov, head coach of “Illichivets” Mariupol, stated in interview with Ukrainian internet portal Football.ua that it took Davit Targamadze and Tornike Okriashvili 4 days to return from the Georgian national team to the club.

- How do you think will debut of Davit Targamadze be held in “Shakhtar” Donetsk?

- I cannot say anything about “Shakhtar” but this player must be in lineup in our team. But first he was injured and then, had foot poisoning. While he was treated we beat “Metalurh” 3:0. Of course, after this match, I could not substitute anyone by Targamadze. Plus, all players of the national team returned to the club after one-two day. Targamadze and Okriashvili returned after four days. Administrators of the national team bought their tickets through Kazakhstan because it was cheaper. As a result of it, they wandered between Kazakhstan and Ukraine for four days.
- Did not you apply to Georgian Football Federation?

- Yes, I sent a letter and everything is alright now. Kankava and Lobzhanidze of “Dnipro” returned in two days. Now everybody arrives together.
