Borys Tashchy

Borys Borysovych Tashchy (; born 26 July 1993) is a Ukrainian professional footballer who plays as a forward or attacking midfielder.
Club career.
Tashchy was born in Odessa. He was sold by his original club Chornomorets Odesa to the Latvian side JFK Olimps on 22 August 2011, and the very next day Olimps re-sold him to Dynamo Moscow. Dynamo's general director Roman Dyakov could not explain why they did not directly buy him from Chornomorets, citing confidentiality, and Serhiy Kernitsky, Chornomorets' vice-president was perplexed at this scheme as the transfer price given by Chornomorets would be the same for Dynamo as it was for Olimps.
VfB Stuttgart.
On 9 October 2014, Tashchy moved to VfB Stuttgart II. He made his debut for VfB Stuttgart in the Bundesliga on 29 November 2015 against Borussia Dortmund. Stuttgart relegated from Bundesliga at the end of 2015–16 season, but Tashchy remain with the team for the next season. He scored his first official goal for the team on 22 August 2016 in a match against FC 08 Homburg for the DFB-Pokal.
Loan to FC Zbrojovka Brno.
On 22 February 2017, Tashchy moved to FC Zbrojovka Brno on a half-year loan. In July 2017 he became a free agent after his contract with Stuttgart was terminated.
MSV Duisburg.
On 4 July 2017, Tashchy moved to MSV Duisburg.
FC St. Pauli.
For the 2019–20 season, he was signed by FC St. Pauli. He agreed the termination of his contract with the club in January 2021.
International career.
Tashchy represented Ukraine in all national selections from U16 to U21.
Due to his Bessarabian Bulgarian roots, in 2014 he received a Bulgarian passport making him eligible for the Bulgaria national football team. On 28 March 2016, Bulgarian media reported that Borys has already spoken with BFU officials and has expressed his desire to represent Bulgaria. Petev once again confirmed that Tashchy will play for Bulgaria on 27 May 2016, but he couldn't join the team for the Kirin Cup due to paper problems.
