Journalist Volodymyr Zvierov expressed his opinion on the rumors about possible changes in the Dynamo coaching staff.
Volodymyr Zvierov’The question of Shovkovsky’s resignation is not being raised except by the lazy. Let’s think about whether Ihor Surkis plans to remove him, and if so, who might be bet on. There are only a few rounds left in the Ukrainian Championship and the Conference League. The defeat to Kolos occurred on the birthday of Dynamo’s president. I doubt he could make such radical decisions on this day. But it’s obvious to everyone that the trust in the coaching staff has decreased.
If we recall previous instances of coach changes at Dynamo, I remember Mykhailichenko finishing in fourth place, and the 2019/20 season was lost to Shakhtar long before the winter break. The Kyivans won the Ukrainian Cup, but that didn’t save Mykhailichenko — he was fired at the end of the season. Even earlier, failing to qualify for the Champions League cost Khatskevich his job. These are the key moments in recent years when coaches, who gave a lot to the club as players, lost their positions.
If Shovkovsky could be fired, then who comes after him? There were rumors that one of the candidates is Ihor Kostyuk. There was also talk about Yuriy Vernydub. So far, these are just conversations. A decision on Shovkovsky’s future has not yet been made,' quotes FootballHub Telegram channel, quoting Zvierov.
