Lokomotiv (Sofia) right-back Patrick-Gabriel Galchev leaves "Nadezhda" after the end of the "Christmas break" in Bulgarian football, sportal.bg reported.
The 24-year-old winger is owned by Levski, as his rental contract with the "railroad players" expires at the end of the calendar year and will not be extended, although such an option existed, Sportal.bg learned. So in January Papi will have to appear at the "Georgi Asparuhov" stadium.
Galchev, who is a youth player of the "blues", has 99 matches for the "Gerena" grand, but was dropped from the starting lineup after the arrival of the Brazilian Aldair. At the end of February this year, two months after Julio Velasquez came to the helm of Levski, Papi was transferred to Lokomotiv. He has six matches for Bulgaria, and was last called up to the national team in 2024 by the then coach Ilian Iliev.
