Career
Born in Zakarpattia Oblast, Buletsa is a product of Uzhhorod and Kyiv football academies among which are RVUFK Kyiv and Dynamo Kyiv.[1]
He played for Dynamo in the Ukrainian Premier League Reserves (U-21 and U-19 competitions) and in April 2019 he was promoted to the senior squad team. Buletsa was sat on the bench for the away game with Mariupol in the Ukrainian Premier League on 13 April 2019, but did not make an appearance.[2]
On 26 June 2019, Buletsa was loaned to Dnipro-1 for the 2019–20 season.[3] On 31 July 2019, in his Ukrainian Premier League debut against Olimpik Donetsk, Buletsa scored after only two minutes. That goal was also the first ever Ukrainian Premier League goal for Dnipro-1.[4] On 31 August 2020, his loan was prolonged for another season.[5]
International career
Buletsa was part of the Ukraine national under-20 football team that won the 2019 FIFA U-20 World Cup. He played a key role in Ukraine's success, appearing in all 7 of his team's matches and scoring 3 goals. At the end of the tournament, Buletsa received the Silver Ball, awarded to the second best player of the tournament.[6]
He made his senior national team debut on 8 September 2021 in a friendly against the Czech Republic, a 1–1 away draw.[7]
