Samba Diallo to return to Dynamo Kyiv after Rukh loan

Dynamo Kyiv is set to welcome back winger Samba Diallo this summer as his loan spell at Rukh Lviv draws to a close. The Senegalese player is expected to join the team for their upcoming pre-season training camps.

During the second half of the season, Diallo played ten matches for the Lviv-based club, providing one assist. Reports suggest that the Dynamo coaching staff intends to evaluate the player's performance during the summer preparation period.

The move comes following reports of previous friction between the player and coach Igor Kostyuk. The relationship was reportedly strained after the coach publicly criticized the winger's form, despite earlier assurances of support that had led Diallo to expect more regular playing time.
