Edmar Halovskyi de Lacerda (Ukrainian: Едмар Галовський де Ласерда; born 16 June 1980) often known as simply Edmar, born as Edmar de Lacerda Aparecida, is a Brazilian (until March 2011) and Ukrainian (since March 2011)[1] footballer who played as a midfielder for 3 different clubs in the Ukrainian Premier League.

International

Edmar made his debut for Ukraine on 10 August 2011, in a 0–1 loss against Sweden in a friendly match at his club ground in Kharkiv, replacing Ruslan Rotan for the final 17 minutes.

On 7 June 2013, his third cap, he made his first start in a 4–0 away win over Montenegro in qualification for the following year's World Cup.[2] Edmar was one of nine Ukrainian players on 6 September to score in their 9–0 thrashing of San Marino at the Arena Lviv in another qualifier.[3] On 15 November, he provided the pass to team-mate Roman Zozulya for the first goal in a 2–0 victory over France, in the qualification play-off,[4] although France won on aggregate.

Personal life

He got married on 13 December 2008 in Simferopol to Ukrainian Tetiana Halovska, a native of Simferopol Raion.[5]

As a naturalized Ukrainian citizen, on 20 July 2014, Edmar received the agenda to the Ukrainian Army during the conflict with Russia.[6]
