From the first day of his return to Dynamo, Shovkovs'kyi was considered by the club's management as more than just an assistant

Telegram channel "Dynamo Kyiv Inside" shared some details about the appointment of Oleksandr Shovkovskiy as interim head coach of Dynamo Kyiv. Recall that such changes in the coaching staff of the "white-blue" occurred due to the fact that the coach of the team Mircea Lucescu is forced to lie down for surgery.

"Shovkovskiy really from the first day of the re-entry into the native river was considered by the club's management as not just an assistant. And today Lucescu's annausment about the VrIO is not his decision alone. It is also a collective "brotherly" decision. And we knew it even before the match against Rukh, because that's when the Romanian decided not to postpone surgical intervention.

The former eternal #1 of Dynamo was given a chance to show himself in action. By analogy with Rebrov in 2014. The remaining matches will be the litmus test. If it works, it's OK. If not... Let's be honest - this season the team is unlikely to rise above the 4th place, we should not fall lower. Next season will be a total team rebuild. We need a surgeon for that rebuild. A surgeon, preferably an orthopedic one. With a solid background and charisma. With a knack for "cutting into the living" and implanting new microtissues into the body of this weakening patient. There is still hope. But the healing process will not be swift. So, friends, let us be patient. And as for Shovkovskiy, we want him to succeed. And he did", - wrote the source.
