Artem Dovbyk (Ukrainian: Артем Олександрович Довбик; born 21 June 1997) is a Ukrainian professional footballer who plays as a forward for Ukrainian Premier League club SC Dnipro-1 and the Ukraine national team.

Career

Born in Cherkasy, Ukraine, Dovbyk is a product of the FC Cherkaskyi Dnipro academy after graduating from the Olympic Reserve Specialized Sports School Slavutych in Cherkasy. He won the 2014–15 Ukrainian Second League, scoring 7 goals. He was then sent on a three-month loan to Moldovan club FC Zaria Bălți, where he won the Moldovan Cup.

He returned to Ukraine in Summer 2016 from Moldova and signed a contract with FC Dnipro in August 2016.[1] He would go on to score a joint team high 6 goals as he won the 2016–17 Ukrainian Premier League Best Young Player award. This prompted Ukraine national football team coach Andriy Shevchenko to call him for 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.

When Dnipro were relegated due to incurring debt, Dovbyk stayed with the club. He would go on to score 12 goals in 13 games in the Ukrainian Second League, gaining interest from foreign clubs, and in 2018 he joined Danish club FC Midtjylland on a free transfer.[2] On 2 September 2019, he was loaned out to SønderjyskE for the 2019–20 season.[3]

International career

Dovbyk was called up in the training camp of the Ukraine national under-19 football team, but has not played any game for this representation.

At the age of 19, Dovbyk received his first call up to the full national team when he was named in the 31-player senior squad for the 2018 FIFA World Cup qualification match against Iceland on 5 September 2016,[4] but not made a debut for it.

He took part in 2017 UEFA European Under-21 Championship qualification as a 19 year old and participated on the 2019 UEFA European Under-21 Championship qualification.

He made his debut for Ukraine on 31 March 2021 in a World Cup qualifier against Kazakhstan.[5]

On 29 June 2021, Dovbyk made his debut in UEFA Euro 2020, as a substitute for Andriy Yarmolenko in the extra time of the round of 16 against Sweden. He scored the winning goal in the stoppage time of the overtime to secure a 2–1 victory for Ukraine and qualification to the quarter-finals.[6]
