— I was in Spain. I attended the matches of the Nations League Ukraine — Belgium (3:1) and Spain — Netherlands (3:3, 5:4 on penalties). I am now back in Ukraine. On April 27, I will participate in the veterans match Karpaty — Kolomyia. I try to keep in shape. I also follow the UPL, the First and Second leagues on television. I try to stay updated on football events.
— You have already taken a bit of a break from your work after Karpaty. Be honest, do you miss the coaching bench?
— After so many years I dedicated to football, it’s clear that I miss it. I worked for a year at Karpaty, but that was just a warm-up, so to speak.
— Have you perhaps received any interesting offers yet?
— Not yet. As far as I understand, they look at my age (74 years old, — ed. note). We will see, maybe someone will take a risk. I have already said more than once that I feel good — I play football and run every day. I definitely don’t feel like I am over 70. I will never shout across the whole country: “Come on, hire me as a coach,” but if someone entrusts me with a team, I will definitely not let them down. If an offer comes, that’s good; if not, then so be it. I calmly relate to this; it’s life.
