"Yuri Wirt has travelled a long way with Rovno "Veres". Second League, First League and in the UPL continued to squeeze the maximum out of the resources available to him, giving motivation to the players to show their best football in their careers. Such a coach with such experience is necessary for "Zvyagel" to achieve the goals set for the team. Therefore, I am glad that Yuriy Nikolaevich accepted my offer and agreed to take over the team at such a difficult time in the middle of the season, when a tough race for the championship is unfolding in the Second League.
We didn't have time for long negotiations. On Sunday we met in Zvyagel, the coach saw the city, the stadium, learnt more about the team from me, and today, on Tuesday, he held the first training session with the players. We can see that he missed the emotions that coaching gives, he is motivated and aimed at success," - commented on the appointment of Wirt president of "Zvyagel" Dmytro Kostyuk.
We would like to remind you that Virt's last job was at Veres in Rovno, which he left last summer.
