Over the past few months, various media outlets have been wooing Roman Hryhorchuk, the current head coach of Chornomorets Odesa, to teams that defend the sporting honour of the agricultural sector. Two members of the Premier League - Kolos Kovalivka and LNZ Cherkasy - were named as such. However, while the Kovalivka club has already denied this information, as evidenced by the appointment of its former acting coach Oleksandr Pozdeyev as head coach, the Cherkasy club has not yet done so.

The experienced coach is optimistic about the future of the Odesa club, where he has been working for six and a half years.
Roman Grigorchuk has a lot of ties to Odesa. In this city, he has not only his favourite job, but also his family, his own house and the sympathy of the fans. In addition, the coach has recently been paying attention to the upbringing of his son Timerlan, whom he wants to see continue his football traditions.
This spring, the owner of Zhytomyr's Polissya Gennadiy Butkevych mentioned Hryhorchuk's name in the list of possible candidates for the role of head coach, but the matter never went beyond words.
In addition to Chornomorets, Grigorchuk's professional coaching career included six clubs - Latvian Dinaburg, Ventspils, Ukrainian Metalurh from Zaporizhzhia, Azerbaijani Gabala, Kazakh Astana and Belarusian Shakhtar from Soligorsk.
Earlier, we reported that during the off-season, Roman Hryhorchuk's team may lose 10-12 players, including legionnaires, for various reasons.
