Knee surgery
The Ukrainian runners-up will meet either Latvia's FHK Liepajas Metalurgs or Kazakhstan's FK Aktobe over two legs on 25/26 July and 1/2 August. Vaschuk, who represented Ukraine at the FIFA World Cup in Germany this summer, will be absent as he has had surgery to repair damaged knee cartilage after being injured at the club's pre-season training camp. The Ukrainian season starts on 21 July although Dynamo will take on champions FC Shakhtar Donetsk in Sunday's Super Cup match.
