Obolon debut?
The club will be strengthened by the arrival of the 25-year-old Croatian defender, Valter Androsic, from NK Zagreb, as well as the 21-year-old Slovenian midfield player, Rusmin Dedic, from NK Rudar Velenje. Both players are already on Vorskla's books and will be eyeing a debut in the away game against FC Obolon Kyiv on 23 March.
Ecuador to Ukraine
Also, Mercado Nazaren Peter Taylor will become the first-ever Ecuadorian player to appear in the Ukrainian league, after the under-21 international midfield player signed a two-year contract with Vorskla. The three new signings will join Turkmenistan international midfield player Rasim Kerimov, striker Nazar Bayramov and Slovakian defender Tomasz Brusko, who all joined the club in recent weeks, in an attempt to help Vorskla save their place in the Premier League.
Vorskla victory
In their last game, Vorskla beat FC Olexandriya 2-1 with goals from the Nigerians Harrison Omoko and Jack Molongo, both of whom joined the club on loan two days prior to the game.
