Ex-Dynamo striker Artem Milevskyi was in a coma

Former Dynamo player Oleksandr Aliyev confirmed that his friend and ex-Kyiv striker Artem Milevskyi was in a coma after complications from alcohol addiction.

- Yes, he was in coma. I was with him every day. He is now recovering, being treated.

He has many well-wishers, but also many who wish him harm.

He needs to change, to forget that he was a football player. That's it, it's over. Now he has a new stage in his life. Like me. Life does not end there. Maybe this stage will be even better than the one in football.

It is difficult to change, but it is necessary, - said Aliyev, speaking to journalist Dmytro Hordon.
