Eugen Levchenko

[Stuckey]

Petrillo said the club was also close to securing Eugen Levchenko.

The Ukraine international had promised Reds' coach Rini Coolen he would have an answer by last night (European time).

Looks good.

Out of all the signings this is the only confusing one

[davidbloop]

I must admit I have no idea who this guy is or whether he's any good. I've seen some of his highlights reels but who knows how good he is now?

That said though, Rini knows a hell of a lot more about football than I do so I have faith that if signed, he will be worthwhile.

Saw Val just put on twitter a bit of a ambiguous status but it sounds like a deal might be done.

Levchenko is ........

oh...Levchenko is....looking for a pen:)

'yevhen' on wiki

'evgyen' if you pronounce the cyrillic letters properly

[RedsUnited]

Yeah, I have no idea where the 'u' came from in the name.

He seems to be good at taking pens... well, except for in big games.

He is in some exalted company.

Adelaide United FC can confirm versatile Ukrainian Evgeniy Levchenko has signed a one year deal with the club.

Sounds good. Rini is really going for versatility! As I've said before I believe in what Rini is doing so I think he will be a good signing. 33 is a little old though.

33 is a little old though.

Reflected in the 1 year deal I guess.

Looks like a promising signing.

Exactly if he isnt what Rini expected then we only have him for one season, plus we have other players that can play his position. But if he is what Rini expects and does perform then we still have that option to extend. There are plenty of players that can perform at the top league well past 33.

I am really excited about all our signings and cant wait for the season to start.

According to Val, there could be ANOTHER import on the way.........
