Former Dynamo Kyiv forward Artem Kravets told Sport.ua on 22 August 2026 that he sees little cause for optimism about the club’s prospects this season. Kravets pointed to Dynamo’s recent exits from Europa League and Conference League qualifying as evidence of the team’s current level.

The article notes that, despite two consecutive wins to start the Ukrainian Premier League under coach Ihor Kostiuk, Kravets still fears the worst: “I have little optimism left. It may happen that Dynamo will be without European cups,” he said. Sport.ua also reports that Dynamo’s next match is scheduled for 29 August against Bukovyna.

The comments come amid active debate about the club’s form and management; readers should follow club announcements and match results for developments.
