Chygrynskiy had an early start on Monday morning as he underwent his medical exam in order to be able to clear the path for him to officially sign for Barça. “He is in very well and in good health for a player at his level,” club doctor Pruna stated.

Having arrived in Barcelona on Sunday from France, the Ukrainian international underwent a series of physical exams on Monday at the Asistencia Sanitaria in Camp Nou.

Testing times

Doctor Pruna followed Chygrynskiy’s progress throughout as he had a cardiology test, a number of strength exams, blood test, a muscle and tendon ecogram and various other exams to gauge his fitness levels.

Ready to play

After everything had finished, Doctor Pruna stated that “everything went well” and that physically Chygrynskiy “is fit to play”. The medic was keen to implement a programme of preventative exercises to ensure that the player does not incur a repeat of the leg injury he has suffered before.
