On June 6, the outstanding goalkeeper and current goalkeeping coach of Dynamo Kyiv Mykhailo Mykhailov turned 65. Honorary UEFA member Hryhoriy Surkis congratulated the hero of the day.
Dear Mykhailo Leonidovych!
I sincerely congratulate you on your anniversary and pay tribute to the great master of football goalkeeping, who was lucky enough to literally have a hand in the resounding triumphs of Dynamo Kyiv in the 1980s.
Your winning personality and exemplary attitude allowed you to become an indispensable performer in Valery Lobanovsky's legendary star team and to accumulate a solid collection of well-deserved titles. And your modesty, sensitivity, sense of humor and other outstanding human virtues finally won the most demanding fans' hearts.
Dynamo Kyiv is lucky that, having completed your career, you remained in the Dynamo family, continuing the glorious traditions by raising new heirs - reliable gatekeepers, true fighters and leaders.
I wish you, dear jubilee, as well as all your family and friends, all Ukrainians, a speedy end to the terrible war. May every day of peaceful life bring you joy and success, and may football remain a source of joy and inspiration for you!
Sincerely,
Hryhoriy Surkis
