About the player
Viktor Tsukanov is a product of Shakhtar Donetsk's academy, a central midfielder who made his debut for the senior side in March 2024 after progressing through the club's youth ranks. The database record listing him as "Tukanov" is a transliteration error; the correct rendering of his surname, verified against Ukrainian Premier League and Wikipedia sources, is Tsukanov (Цуканов).
Born in Kirovograd — now Kropyvnytskyi — Tsukanov took his first steps in football at Zvyezda Kropyvnytskyi's youth setup between 2017 and 2019, before Shakhtar Donetsk brought him into their academy. He spent three years there developing before stepping up to the first team.
He remains part of Shakhtar's first-team squad, wearing the number 24 shirt. As an academy graduate rather than a signing, his move to the senior ranks carried no transfer fee, and he had no prior spell at another senior club before establishing himself at Shakhtar.
