Ukrainian defender Dmytro Chygrynskiy has ended his professional football career. This was announced by his agent Oleksandr Pankov.
“Chygrynskiy has officially retired as a football player. We worked together as agent and player for 8 years. It was a fantastic period of our lives.
Since yesterday, "Chyhro" has officially become a coach — an assistant in the staff of the renowned Spanish specialist Manolo Jiménez at "Aris" (Thessaloniki). Under the guidance of the Spaniard, Chygrynskiy was a successful football player, and now he begins his journey as a young coach.
I am confident that he has a very bright coaching future ahead, and this first step is of the highest quality and promise,” Pankov wrote on his Instagram page.
Let’s recall that during his career Chygrynskiy played for Zaporizhzhia "Metalurg", Donetsk "Shakhtar", "Barcelona", "Dnipro", AEK, and "Ionikós".
