Colombian footballer who plays in Ukraine returned to the country

The Colombian Gilmar Bolivar cried weeks ago for help to leave Ukraine, this because of the war that is going on in that European country. In addition, because sports competitions were interrupted indefinitely for the same reason; he managed to return to Colombia and reunite with his family.

The 20-year-old never imagined having to live a war and his anguish was shown in several interviews where he asked the Foreign Ministry for help and who could help him leave Ukraine in order to take preventive measures and avoid some unfortunate event caused by the war.

Now, Gilmar, who is already with his family, is waiting to see how the conflict continues to develop in Europe and from this he will make a decision about his sporting future, although he hopes to receive some offer to continue his football career in another country. With Karpaty Halych, the striker played 15 matches between the league and the cup, playing a total of 1080 minutes in which he failed to score goals.

Other players who were affected by the conflict in Europe are Jhon Córdoba, Jorge Carrascal and Wilmar Barrios who play in the Russian league, a tournament that has not stopped despite the war.

These players have the possibility of being signed by another club or terminating their contract without legal consequences, according to FIFA, but they still have minutes of play; for example, in the case of Wilmar Barrios he starts with Zenit St. Petersburg and the second most valuable foreign player in the league. Jorge Carrascal is a newcomer to CSKA Moscow and Jhon Córdoba, who is currently recovering from injury, recently noted that he has never considered terminating his contract with Krasnodar.
