This summer there will be changes in the coaching staff of Kyiv's Dynamo.

As TK Media has learned from reliable sources, Dynamo Kyiv has already made a decision regarding the future of head coach Oleksiy Mykhailychenko. The 57-year-old specialist will leave his position after the end of the season.

At the same time, Mykhailychenko will most likely remain with the club and return to one of the leadership positions at the club. Before his return to coaching after a 15-year break, he, as a reminder, served as sporting director of the Kyiv club.

The question of who will replace Mykhailychenko as Dynamo's head coach remains open, however, club president Ihor Surkis is looking for a foreign specialist for the role.

According to some media reports, the name of former Kyiv club coach Yuriy Semin is among the candidates for the post.

Oleksiy Mykhailychenko was appointed Dynamo head coach in August of last year, replacing Oleksandr Khatskevych, who had been dismissed.

In the Ukrainian Premier League, Dynamo have already conceded the title to Shakhtar and are now battling Zorya and Desna for second place — Dynamo are two points ahead of the Luhansk side and three points ahead of the Chernihiv team.
