I wish him every success in the Premier League.“It's nice that our former players - Willian, Fernandinho, [Henrikh] Mkhitaryan, and Fred – will be playing in England for the top clubs competing for the top spot.” Fred is leaving the Ukraine side after five years and 156 appearances.As pointed out by Palkin, he is set to become the latest former Shakhtar star to grace a Premier League stage. Fellow Brazilians Willian and Fernandinho are title winners at Chelsea and Manchester City, while Mkhitaryan left United to link up with Arsenal in January.</blockquote>
