A new stage in Dmytro Ivaniseny's career

Outstanding Ukrainian football player Dmytro Ivanisenya, who used to defend the colors of Mariupol and Luhansk Zora, took an unexpected step in his career. The 30-year-old native of Kryvyi Rih received Russian citizenship, which will allow him not to be considered a legionnaire in Russia's internal competitions.

The story of Dmytro Ivaniseny

Dmytro Ivanisenya began his football career in Kryvyi Rih, and later went through the academy of Shakhtar Donetsk. During his career, he played 50 matches in the top division of the Ukrainian championship. In November 2019, he made his debut for the national team of Ukraine, entering the field in a match against Estonia.

Go to "Krylya Sovetov"

With the beginning of the full-scale war, many Ukrainian athletes left Russia. However, Ivanisenya decided to stay in the Samara club Krylya Sovetov. This decision caused mixed reviews among fans and experts.

Citizenship and new opportunities

Obtaining Russian citizenship opens up new opportunities for Ivanisenaya. Now he is not considered a legionnaire in Russian domestic competitions, which may have a positive effect on his career with "Krylya Sovetov". However, he is still listed as a citizen of Ukraine on the club's official website and the Premier League portal.

"I always aspired to reach new heights in my career. Obtaining Russian citizenship is another step towards my goals," said Dmytro Ivanisenya.

Reaction to changes

The reaction to Ivanisena receiving Russian citizenship was different. Some fans support his decision, considering it a logical step to continue his career. Others consider this step a betrayal of the motherland.

"This is his personal choice. Everyone has the right to decide how to build his life and career," said one of the fans.

Ivaniseni's future

Now it is difficult to predict how this step will affect the future career of Dmitry Ivaniseny. One thing is clear: he continues to play at a high level and strives for new achievements. Whether he will be able to realize his potential in new conditions, time will tell.
