Dynamo Keeps Stepping on the Same Rake. Oleksiy Mykhaylychenko Named Head Coach
The new-old “Dynamo heart.”
Alexei Mykhaylychenko has replaced Oleksandr Khatskevych as Dynamo head coach, the club's official website reports. Joining his coaching staff is another well-known former club player, Vadim Yevtushenko.
According to journalist Kyrylo Kryzhanovsky, the contract is signed for two years with an option to extend it by one more year.
On August 16, the new coaching staff will hold the team's first training session.
Mykhaylychenko worked as the club's sporting director in recent years. He was also head coach from 2002 (right after the death of Valeriy Lobanovskyi) until 2004, when Dynamo lost the first leg of the Champions League qualifiers to Trabzonspor.
Oleksandr Khatskevych was dismissed after the club's exit from Champions League qualifying to Bruges (0:1, 3:3). He became the first Dynamo coach to be knocked out of Champions League qualifiers three times. In both seasons under him, Dynamo finished second in the Ukrainian championship and reached the Europa League round of 16.
