Ukrainian-born midfielder, Danylo Ihnatenko, came into this world on the 13th of March 1997. As of now, the lad's 27 years of age, a good summer season for many a footballer. His most recent allegiance is with Slovan Bratislava, a team where he, wearing the no. 77 jersey, takes a central position in the midfield. The chap stands at 6ft 2in which, if you regard it in metric, comes up as 1.89 metres. His weight, on the other hand, reads at 13 st 3 lb, or 84 kilograms if you're keen on measurement in mass.
Tracing his professional journey back to July 2019, Ihnatenko was transferred from Shakhtar Donetsk in the Ukrainian Premier League to Ferencvaros in Hungary's Nemzeti Bajnokság I on loan. Despite just having his debut season in Ferencvaros in 2019 - 2020, he managed to make 13 first team appearances and netted one goal. After his stint in Ferencvaros, Ihnatenko returned to Shakhtar Donetsk in January 2020 as the loan period came to an end.
January 2022 marked Ihnatenko's next move as he left Shakhtar Donetsk again. This time to make his mark in Bordeaux, Championnat National in France, again on loan. First season with Bordeaux saw him making 11 appearances in league matches. The 2022 - 2023 season was more active with 34 appearances and two goals. The streak continued in the 2023 - 2024 season with him making 30 appearances and scoring one goal.
The undisclosed fee that Shakhtar Donetsk finally agreed with Bordeaux saw Ihnatenko transferred permanently in July 2022. Here, he continued with substantial team presence, making 11 league appearances in the 2021 - 2022 season, 34 in the 2022 - 2023 (with two goals), and 30 in the 2023 - 2024 season (with one goal).
As it stands, in September 2024, Ihnatenko has once again shifted loyalties and now plays for Slovan Bratislava in the Slovakian First Football League. Till now, in the on-going 2024 - 2025 season at Slovan Bratislava, he has made two first team appearances in league matches. Also, he made two starts for the club in the Champions League 2024 - 2025. Indeed, a globetrotter whether it comes to football or not.
