Ukrainian goalkeeper Vladyslav Krapyvtsov continues to strengthen his position at Girona. In the last three La Liga matches against Las Palmas, Athletic, and Getafe, he was named in the squad. Vladyslav also took part in pre-match training sessions before the game against Real (pictured).
Being included in Girona’s squads for La Liga matches is a significant achievement for the young goalkeeper, who only joined the Catalan club in December, signing a contract until 2029.
Although Krapyvtsov has yet to step onto the field, his regular inclusion in the squad shows the coaching staff’s high regard. He has outcompeted 37-year-old Juan Carlos for a place in the lineup, becoming the team’s second goalkeeper after the experienced Argentine Paulo Gazzaniga.

Vladyslav Krapyvtsov is preparing for his La Liga debut wearing professional Brave GK Fury Pro goalkeeper gloves. This model is designed to maximize ball control and confidence in every movement.
Supreme Contact latex, 4 mm thick, ensures excellent grip on the ball even in difficult weather conditions. During pre-match training, Krapyvtsov can confidently secure the ball, which is especially important when practicing interceptions and reactive saves.
The Rollfinger cut increases the contact area with the ball, providing stable control in any game situation. This allows Vladyslav to effectively protect the goal line and demonstrate confident play when dealing with crosses from the flanks.
The Fix Fit system prevents the hand from slipping inside the glove, which is crucial during quick movements and dives for the ball. The gloves’ anatomical construction guarantees a comfortable fit and natural movements, helping Krapyvtsov focus on the game.
An elastic cuff ensures a reliable fit at the wrist without limiting mobility. This is especially important for dynamic interceptions and reacting to powerful shots.

Signing a contract with Girona until 2029 was an important step in Vladyslav Krapyvtsov’s career. Head coach Míchel Sánchez noted that the Ukrainian is a key acquisition for both the club’s present and future. Following the departure of Pau López, Krapyvtsov took over as the second goalkeeper, becoming a full-fledged member of the first team.
Despite his young age (19), Vladyslav has already proven his readiness to compete at a high level. Being included in the squad for three La Liga matches is a testament to his progress and potential. Girona views Krapyvtsov not just as a reserve player but also as a promising talent who could become the team’s primary goalkeeper in the future.
Regular training sessions with the senior squad and involvement in match preparation help Vladyslav adapt more quickly to the demands of Spanish football. The club expects him to make his La Liga debut in the near future.
