Mircea Lucescu, who has worked at Shakhtar for 12 years, has become the new head coach of Dynamo, however, the Pitmen's CEO Sergei Palkin is not worried about this.

" The club grew, went up, but Mircea remained the same. Therefore, the president gave Lucescu a task to find new candidates six months before the end of the contract.. This decision was thoughtful. The President understood what he was doing, "

" It was the president's decision and he was not going to roll it back "

" For example, Carlo Nicolini refused Lucescu and did not enter his headquarters, saying that he would not be able to walk around Kiev and look into the eyes of Shakhtar's fans "

Lucescu will play his first match at the head of Dynamo against Shakhtar on August 25, when the teams will fight for the Ukrainian Super Cup at the NSC Olimpiyskiy.
