Recently, in the European Championship qualifying stage, the Ukrainian Ruslan Malinovskis has attracted attention and has been watched by European giants for some time.
According to the Ukrainian portal "sportarena.com", the 26-year-old midfielder's performances are being monitored by London's "Chelsea" club, which received recommendations from Claude Makelele, who currently serves as a technical advisor, to look into the player's services.
Since this season, R. Malinovskis has been defending the honor of the "Atalanta" team, which is also competing in the UEFA Champions League. He has already played eight matches this season.
Meanwhile, while playing for the Ukrainian national team, he scored a brace in a match against Lithuania and also contributed to the team's victory against Portugal.
"Atalanta" acquired the Ukrainian player from the "Genk" club in the summer, paying around 14 million euros. He has been playing in Belgium since 2015.
