In the video in question, the players appear together with their wives and children. Among them are former Palmeiras striker Fernando, former São Paulo player David Neres and, as already mentioned, former Corinthians player Pedrinho.
“We are all gathered here, Dynamo and Shakhtar players, with our families in a hotel. We ask you to share this video. Due to the lack of fuel in the city, the closed border and the closed airspace, we are unable to leave . We ask for the support of the government of Brazil, which can help us”, said Marlon, Shakhtar defender.
In addition to these clubs, there are Brazilians playing for other shields, such as Dnipro, Zorya Lugansk, Vorskla Poltava, Kolos Kovalivka, Rukh Lviv and Metalist.
