Rykun not wanted by Dnipro

Ukraine midfielder Oleksander Rykun has gotten into hot water with his club team Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk and is paying the price. The club has announced that it will release the player for the dreaded “breaches of discipline.” This is code for: the guy hasn’t shown up for training and has shown no interest in playing for Dnipro. Rykun is a talented player who has earned six caps with the national team, but clearly his head and heart aren’t in a good spot. Forget a ticket to Germany. He needs some therapy sessions with a mental health conselor.
