Polissya's president Hennadiy Butkevych does not intend to consider offers for defender Eduard Sarapiy, in whom Shakhtar Donetsk is interested. An agreement between the 'Miners' and the 'Wolves' for Sarapiy's transfer will be almost impossible to reach. The defender is also not eager to change clubs, being completely satisfied with his position in the team and with playing under head coach Ruslan Rotan.

According to journalist Igor Burbas, Shakhtar Donetsk is targeting Polissya and Ukraine national team defender Eduard Sarapiy for the summer transfer window. Shakhtar reportedly considers the 26-year-old a player who would strengthen their defense, a move that would also help them with the limit on foreign players. During the winter, Sarapiy extended his contract with Polissya, which includes a five million US dollar release clause that will only become effective in two years. Sarapiy joined Polissya in July 2024 and has one cap for the Ukrainian national team; his current market value on Transfermarkt is €1.50m.
