Turan: Shakhtar dreaming of playing European games in Ukraine again

Shakhtar Donetsk manager Arda Turan said his players are dreaming of contesting European fixtures in Ukraine again as they prepare to begin their Champions League campaign in exile at Stamford Bridge. The 16-time Ukrainian champions have been unable to host foreign teams in the country since the start of Russia's invasion in 2022, with all European club matches and national team games taking place abroad due to the security situation.
