Several European clubs have significant interest in 20-year-old Ukrainian forward Matvey Ponomarenko following his performance last season. Representatives of some clubs have studied the situation and certain sums were mentioned in conversations, but no official offers have yet been made to Dynamo Kyiv. The clubs monitoring the forward's progress include Danish side Midtjylland, Ajax from the Netherlands, Portugal's Porto, Werder Bremen of Germany, and French club Strasbourg. Ponomarenko has 3 caps and 1 goal for Ukraine and a current market value of €12.00m according to Transfermarkt. Reports in June 2026 indicated Dynamo Kyiv values the player at €25 million. This followed a report that an earlier offer of €20 million from Borussia Dortmund had been rejected.
