Matvey Ponomarenko, a forward for Dynamo Kyiv, is facing the possibility of leaving the club for free as his contract is set to expire in January 2026, after which he will become a free agent. The club's management has not entered into any negotiations to extend his contract, which means he will be able to negotiate a preliminary agreement with any team once the season concludes. Leicester City is reportedly one of the clubs showing interest in acquiring his services. The 19-year-old forward has attracted attention from clubs in Portugal, Belgium, Spain, and England, including Wolverhampton Wanderers. This season, he has participated in five matches for the first team, scoring one goal, and has been a consistent performer for Dynamo U-19, netting 20 goals in 24 matches. His market value is estimated to be 700,000 euros.
