Ukrainian Premier League: Three Clubs Announce Free Agent Signings

The Ukrainian Premier League continued its summer squad overhaul as three clubs officially confirmed new arrivals on free transfers. Epicenter announced the signing of 23-year-old striker Maksym Yevpak. The forward spent last season with Viktoria, racking up 32 appearances across all competitions, scoring five goals and adding four assists. Financial terms were not disclosed, but Transfermarkt lists the move as a free agent transfer. Obolon reinforced their goalkeeping department by bringing in Kyrylo Barantsov. The 22-year-old former Yuksa shot-stopper played 20 matches last season, keeping five clean sheets while conceding 21 goals. He also joined without a transfer fee. Livyi Bereh completed the trio of moves by signing Denys Ihnatenko, a former Dynamo Kyiv goalkeeper. The 27-year-old did not see any first-team minutes in the previous campaign but was a regular member of Dynamo's matchday squads for league and European fixtures. Ihnatenko arrives as a free agent. All three clubs will hope these additions help them achieve their respective goals in the upcoming UPL season.
