Dynamo want to hire Lucescu instead of Khatskevych, media reports
Now that's a twist.
As the leading Romanian sports paper Gazeta Sporturilor reports, 74-year-old Mircea Lucescu may take charge of Kyiv's Dynamo, which sees him as a replacement for Alexander Khatskevych.
Lucescu is expected to attend the Dynamo–Shakhtar match in Kyiv on August 10, where he will give the Kyiv club's management his final answer.
Besides Dynamo, Bucharest's Steaua is also interested in Lucescu.
The Romanian coach previously spent 12 years in the camp of Dynamo's bitterest rival — with Shakhtar he won 22 trophies, including the UEFA Cup and 8 league titles.
Lucescu left Ukraine at the end of the 2015/2016 season. He then worked at St. Petersburg's Zenit and with the Turkish national team.
Dynamo lost 0:1 to Club Brugge the previous day in the away match of the third qualifying round of the Champions League.
