Dynamo Kyiv has officially started preparations for the upcoming season. On Friday, June 12, a group of players arrived at the «Oxford Medical» clinic to undergo mandatory pre-season physical examinations.

Head coach Igor Kostiuk has named a group of 36 players to begin the process. However, the squad is not at full strength yet; players involved with the Ukrainian national and youth teams have been granted extended leave and will join the camp later. Foreign players currently outside of Ukraine will undergo their medical checks upon arrival in Austria, where the team will hold its main pre-season training camp.

The current group includes established stars like Andriy Yarmolenko and Vitaliy Buyalskyi, alongside several younger talents. The final roster for the Austrian trip remains subject to change.

The squad will hold its first post-holiday training session at their Koncha-Zaspa base on Saturday, June 13. The following day, the team is scheduled to depart for Austria to sharpen their focus ahead of the Europa League qualification rounds.
