Central defender “Cercle Brugge” Christian Ravich, who has Ukrainian roots, said he was ready to consider playing for the national team of Ukraine.
“Have they talked to me about the opportunity to play for Ukraine? No. They haven’t contacted me personally. If an offer comes from the UAF, I’m open to dialogue. To hear what they think about it. Maybe they don’t know about me in Ukraine yet. I have all options at your fingertips.

I played for Belgium U-16, U-17, U-18. I’m very proud of it. I would also like to please my father if I have the opportunity to play for Ukraine, but first, think it over and discuss with the manager what would be best for me,” Ravich said in an interview with Ukrainian Football.
It should be noted that 20-year-old Ravich was born and raised in Belgium, but has a strong connection with Ukraine thanks to his father, who is from Transcarpathia. This season, the defender has made 25 appearances for Cercle Brugge in all competitions and scored 2 goals. Transfermarkt values Ravić at €800,000.
