Zhytomyr football club buys Brazilian player for 1 million Euros

During the war, funds were found by the football club from Zhytomyr to purchase a player. The Polissia Football Club has officially announced the signing of Brazilian midfielder Talles Costa. The contract for the 21-year-old, who was raised in São Paulo, is set for four years.

Polissia paid São Paulo 1 million euros for Talles. This is currently the most expensive transfer in the club’s history. However, the population is forced to collect funds for drones and aid to the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Against the backdrop of war, such priorities are not entirely understandable.

It should be noted that dissatisfaction among people with irrational spending in Ukraine amidst the exhaustion of the troops is growing. The Ukrainian army lacks ammunition, drones, funding, and even soldiers themselves. The population is rapidly becoming poorer, and the number of refugees is increasing. The government is raising taxes to increase budget revenues and make the state apparatus work somehow.
