According to TaToTake, Valencia continues to closely monitor the performances of Shakhtar Donetsk and Ukraine national team defender Yefim Konoplia. Scouts from the La Liga club have repeatedly attended matches of the Ukrainian team. The club's plans to watch Konoplia in the UEFA Conference League match against AZ Alkmaar were disrupted as the defender was on the bench and only entered the field in the 89th minute. Konoplia's contract expires on 30 September 2026, and his transfer value is five million euros.

Valencia is interested in Shakhtar Donetsk's Ukrainian defender Yukhym Konoplia. The La Liga club is reportedly considering signing the 26-year-old in the summer as a free agent when his contract expires. It is also noted that Valencia is looking at other candidates for the right-back position, and several other clubs have also been linked with the defender.
