Myron Markevych: "Pavelko asked to cede the Ukrainian team to Shevchenko. So I gave in..."

The famous former coach Myron Markevych revealed details of his conversation with UAF president Andriy Pavelko about his possible appointment as head coach of the Ukrainian national team.

- I had an agreement with Pavelko. Even before Shevchenko, he offered me to coach the Ukraine national team, then he asked Shevchenko to give in. I yielded. Then we agreed that Shevchenko was leaving and I would take over the team - and that was it. What happened there - either he did not want to or someone else. It is hard for me to say.

Take over the Ukrainian national team now? No, no. I have already said that a year and a half ago it was relevant. I was ready for that, because I was at the head of the National team committee, I was aware of all the events. And now it is already... I understand perfectly well that no one will offer it to me. And secondly, there's no need for that anymore," the expert was quoted as saying. FanDay ..
