The 34-year-old footballer will have the opportunity to play for Andijan mainly in the Asian Champions League-2. Sports journalist Narzulla Saydullayev announced this on his Telegram channel.
This will be a new experience for Makarenko, as he had remained a free agent since January. However, in his time, he represented a number of major teams in Europe and Central Asia. In particular, his professional career began at Dynamo Kyiv. He later played for Belgian club Anderlecht, and then for Kazakh champions Ordabasy.
Yevgeny Makarenko has also gained serious experience with the national team. He represented Ukraine, making 15 official appearances and trying to benefit the team. The midfielder is also known to fans for winning the Ukrainian and Kazakh championships throughout his career.
The signing of the experienced player to "Andijan" is an important step for the team. In special competitions, experience can be of great importance. According to experts, Makarenko's performance serves as a great school for local young footballers.
The club's management aims to further strengthen the team's capabilities and achieve high results in the eyes of fans through this transfer. Therefore, Makarenko's transfer is considered a step towards a new stage for Andijan.
