Source: Ukraine national team leaders ask Rotan to agree to take the national team to the match against England

Footballers in the Ukraine national team have reacted positively to the news that Ruslan Rotanu, the coach of the Ukraine national youth team and Oleksandriya, may be entrusted to lead the team to their opening Euro 2024 qualifying match with England (March 26, London), journalist Ihor Burbas says.

"I know for a fact that several leaders of the Ukraine national team called on the phone to Rotanyu. They expressed their support and asked not to hesitate in case of an offer. In those conversations the national team players persuaded Ruslan that it was him (in the absence of Serhiy Rebrov) who would take the team to Wembley.

One more thing. The Youth team in March will be in good hands of Oleksandr Melashchenko and Vasyl Kardash. In such a tandem the team will play the first control match, and Rotan must already have time to go to Italy for the second one. "Alexandria" at this time will be coached by Vladimir Yezerskyi", - wrote a source in his Telegram channel.

It should be recalled that the Ukrainian national team is expected to be headed by former Dynamo Kyiv coach Serhiy Rebrov, who is currently coaching Al-Ain in Emirati.
