Russian children’s and youth football club Dachny is using the emblem of Ukrainian FC Dnipro, which ceased to exist in 2019, Vladyslav Tytariev, a member of the Dnipro fan movement, wrote on Facebook on May 9.
The Russian football club almost completely copied Dnipro’s emblem, changing only the name of the team.
Dnipro-based Dnipro FC played in the 2015 Europa League final but lost to Sevilla (2:3).
The team was also a silver medalist in the Ukrainian football championship twice and won bronze medals seven times.
Dnipro folded in 2019 due to financial problems.
