As previously reported, Mircea Lucescu, the head coach of FC Dynamo Kyiv, went on sick leave due to the need for surgical intervention because of the aggravated arthritis of the hip joint.

The thing is that following a general check-up which preceded the surgery, the doctors decided to replace Lucescu's coronary stent (a cage that is placed into the problematic areas of the arteries to dilate them and ensure normal blood flow). This procedure was successful but Lucescu's body now needs to give pause before carrying out the operation.
The new date of the operation for the Dynamo mentor is also reported to be 1 May.
