Everton star Mykolenko makes same heartbreaking phone call daily to parents to make sure they’re still alive in Ukraine
EVERTON star Vitaliy Mykolenko has opened up on the heartbreaking daily phone call he makes to his parents back in Ukraine.
The full-back, 25, is set to be in action in the final Merseyside derby at Goodison Park on Wednesday night.

Before the game he will check in with his parents, as he does every morning.
Mykolenko’s dad, Sergei, and mum, Olesia, still live at their family home near Kyiv in war-torn Ukraine.
With Russia continuing to bomb Ukraine, as they have done since invading in February 2022, Mykolenko makes sure to phone his parents before heading to Everton‘s Finch Farm base for training.
Speaking to the Mirror, he said: “I ask, ‘Are you okay?’ Sometimes it is bad news, they couldn’t sleep, sometimes it is okay.
“It is hard for me to be here but harder for them because they are there.
“They don’t know what can happen this night or the next night when they are dropping missiles and bombs at night. You never know.”
As a top-level athlete and member of the Ukraine national team, Mykolenko continues to inspire those back home.
Stars of other sports like Elina Svitolina and Oleksandr Usyk have also had an inspirational effect – with Mykolenko having met the latter.
He said: “I think he’s the best sportsman at the moment in Ukraine, the best boxer in the world.
“He’s a good guy. I spoke with him a few times when he came to visit us with the national team.
“He’s a very calm guy, very friendly. [You] can ask him everything, how he prepares for the big fights, it’s interesting to listen to him about how it is difficult.
“I know he was on the front line, not many times but more than once.
“You can help the people on the front line financially but sometimes it is better to help mentally.”
Mykolenko missed out on Everton’s 2-0 FA Cup defeat to Bournemouth over the weekend.
But boss David Moyes has confirmed that the left-back has returned to training and could be back in contention.
The Scot, 61, will have to do without Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Youssef Chermiti, Armando Broja, Dwight McNeil and Orel Mangala.
Smash-hit Nintendo game ‘worth £820’ if you still have a copy at home as list reveals old titles now valued at hundreds
A SMASH-HIT game loved by millions is potentially worth hundreds of pounds if you’ve got the right copy at home.
The title appears on a list of the most valuable Nintendo 64 games being snapped up by fans of the beloved nineties console.


Nintendo sold more than 32 million units of the console globally – and it was a big hit in Britain.
One of the console’s most iconic games was The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.
The action-adventure title came out in November 1998 (although it didn’t land in the UK until December) and is widely seen as one of the greatest games of all time.
According to video game collectibles tracker PriceCharting, a top copy of the game is worth as much as £821.73.
PriceCharting tracks prices of old games and consoles based on sales across the internet to give a good idea of how much they’re worth.
And the website lists a brand-new sealed copy of the game as being worth £820.
If you’ve had it professionally graded, the value rises to a whopping £956.
Sadly the price drops steeply for unsealed versions of the game – but you can still fetch a decent price for them.
For instance, a complete-in-box version of the game (with the cartridge and all the original bits) is valued at £51.
And just the manual alone is said to be worth as much as £43.
If you’ve got the loose cartridge on its own, you could get about £17.
And the box with nothing inside has an estimated value of just under £12.
It’s worth noting that these aren’t guaranteed prices: they’re just approximations based on recent sales of the game.
So you might find that you’ll get lower offers for your old Nintendo classic. Similarly, they could fetch even more money that the values listed here.

Ocarina of Time was the first game in Nintendo’s Legend of Zelda series to have 3D graphics.
The game saw players controlling hero Link in a quest across Hyrule to stop big baddie Ganondorf.
And gamers would play tunes on a virtual ocarina to progress through certain challenges.
It landed to critical acclaim, with reviewers heaping praise on its storyline, original soundtrack, gameplay, and impressive visuals.

Chilling moment schoolboy, 12, ‘stalks playground brandishing HUGE knife in front of pupils’
CHILLING footage has captured a schoolboy allegedly stalking a playground while brandishing a large knife in front of terrified pupils.
Cops raced to Redditch Vale High in Stockport yesterday afternoon after claims a pupil was seen holding the dangerous weapon.


In footage, pupils shout as the boy casually walks through the playground with a large blade in his hand.
Students can be heard asking “what you doing man?” and “why have you got a knife?”
He’s seen walking in between two men, one dressed in a high-vis jacket, before he breaks into a run on the school grounds.
The blade can clearly be seen by onlookers and is caught reflecting light in the footage.
Cops were called to the premises around 3pm after a boy was spotted waving the dangerous instrument.
Parents told the Manchester Evening News it was “terrifying” and some are refusing to let their children return to school.
They have claimed they won’t be sending their children to any more classes.
Afterwards, students were ushered into the theatre until their parents could pick them up.
A concerned mum of a Year 7 boy said she received a worrying call from her son.
She said: “I said to him do not leave the school grounds, I will come and get you.
“I won’t be sending my son in tomorrow and I don’t know if I will be for the rest of the week, or if I’ll be looking for a new school for him.
“It’s absolutely terrifying.”
Another mum who shared a video of the incident refused to take it down after Reddish Vale High asked her to remove it.
She responded: “I haven’t because people have got a right to know that their kids are safe when they go to school and clearly they’re not.
“I’ve told the school that I won’t be sending my daughter to school until I know what precautions have been put in place to keep our children safe.”
A Greater Manchester Police spokesperson said “Officers were called to a school on Reddish Vale Road in Stockport at around 3:10pm Monday 10 February following reports of a person with a knife on the premises.
“Thankfully, no one sustained any serious injuries.
“A 12-year-old boy was arrested on suspicion of assault and possession of a bladed article.
“He has been taken into police custody.”
Cops have assured residents that “additional patrols” will be present in the area.
A spokesperson for Stockport Borough Council said: “We are aware of the distressing incident that took place at Reddish Vale School earlier today and we understand the concerns being shared by parents, students, and the wider community.
“The police were on site to deal with the incident and make the school safe and we are thankful no one was harmed.
“We are working closely with the school to support them and want to reassure everyone that the safety of pupils and teachers is our highest priority.”
Greater Manchester Police confirmed that a 12-year-old boy, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was arrested.
He has since been charged with attempted assault, possession of a bladed article, threatening a person with an offensive weapon, and possession of an offensive weapon in a public place.
The boy has been remanded into custody and was due to appear at Manchester and Salford Youth Court on Tuesday, 11 February.
Chief Inspector John Picton, of GMP’s Stockport Neighbourhood Policing Team, said: “Whilst we do believe that this was an isolated incident, additional patrols have been deployed to the area to offer reassurance to the local community.
“If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to speak to them.”
The alarming event follows an incident last week when a pupil was threatened with a knife on school premises.
The Sun has reached out to Reddish Vale High for a comment.
