The Brazilian midfielder of Shakhtar Donetsk Pedrinho does not want to return to Ukraine from a loan at Atlético Mineiro, Esporte IG reports. According to the player’s agent Villa Dantas, he has already warned the Pitmen’s president that his ward is not going to leave Brazil.
Dantas is negotiating with representatives of Shakhtar to buy out the contract. However, the Ukrainian side demands 20 million euros for the 24-year-old Brazilian, which is a problem.
