Shovkovsky to remain with Dynamo Kyiv for another one-and-a-half years
An experienced goalkeeper and Dynamo Kyiv captain, Oleksandr Shovkovsky, has signed a new contract with the club for another one-and-a-half years.
"The contract is designed for one-and-a-half years, i.e. until the end of the 2013/2014 season," reads a statement posted on the club's official Web site on Monday.
