Athletic career
societies
Roman Sosulja started playing football in the Dynamo Kiev youth academy . There the striker went through the individual youth teams and made his debut in men's football in the 2005/06 season when he played for the club's third team. He quickly established himself there and moved up to the second team. Here, too, he showed his talent, so that those responsible for the first team nominated him for the Premjer-Liha squad towards the end of the 2007/08 season . In May 2008 he made his first division debut. As a supplementary player to the attack by Andrij Shevchenko , Artem Milewskyj , Artem Krawez and Andrij Jarmolenko , he was subsequently used irregularly. In August 2011 he moved to Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk . In July 2016, he moved to the Spanish league for free to Betis Sevilla , where he received a contract until 2019. In the winter break of the 2016/17 season he should be awarded to the second division club Rayo Vallecano . However, the loan ended after a day due to protests from Vallecano fans. The reason for this was a report by the BBC , according to which Sosulja is said to have sympathy for the right-wing extremist paramilitary group Trysub . Sosulja countered the BBC report by stating that he only wore a t-shirt with the coat of arms of Ukraine and verses by the poet Taras Shevchenko , and that a journalist mistook this for the emblem of a paramilitary group.
National team
He made his debut for the senior national football team of Ukraine on June 2, 2010 in a friendly against Norway .
In the EURO 2016 qualifier against the Spanish national soccer team on October 12, 2015 , he suffered a serious injury and was unable to play for six months.
At the European Football Championship 2016 , Roman Sosulja was accepted as a striker in Ukraine 's EM squad . In the opening game against Germany he was on the starting line-up and was substituted, against Northern Ireland he came into the game in the last 20 minutes when the score was 0: 1. Against Poland he played almost the full season. Then the tournament was over after three defeats for the team.
