The Serie A club signed the 16-year-old forward. His height is almost 2 meters

16-year-old Dynamo Kyiv forward Bogdan Popov moved to the Italian Championship.

According to Football 24, the young Ukrainian player signed a preliminary agreement with Serie A representative Empoli.

Interestingly, at 16 years old, Bogdan Popov’s height is 193 centimeters, which gives him a huge advantage over his peers.

In the near future, the young footballer will play for youth teams.

It is worth noting that Popov is a graduate of the Dynamo Academy. After the war began in Ukraine, the football player’s family moved to Poland. There, the young footballer did not waste any time and played for the local club Gornik Zabrze.

In the Polish Championship in the U-17 category, the Ukrainian young man scored eight goals.

It’s interesting that last spring Bogdan Popov was matched with another Italian team, Fiorentina. For unknown reasons, the transfer never took place.
