The President of the Ukrainian Football Association (UAF) and the head of the Ukrainian National Team Committee, Andrey Shevchenko, earns about $50,000 a month from two jobs (~2. 1 million UAH), which makes him the highest paid head in the history of the organization, former journalist Igor Burbas said on his Youtube channel. The salary of the former coach of the Ukrainian team was higher than that of US President Donald Trump (he receives about 33 thousand from the American budget. dollars or ~1. 22 million UAH per month).

The author also draws attention to the frequent foreign trips of the UAF leadership and wonders whether they are related to their official duties or are they just personal matters.

" Valery Pustovoitenko headed the organization on a voluntary basis, and Grigory Surkis did not have an official salary. Andrey Pavelko also worked for free. Andrey Nikolaevich, are you comfortable with such figures compared to the salary of the President of Ukraine or even the newly elected President of the United States And whether your numerous trips to exhibition matches in your duties include? "

The text also raises the question of managing the Ukrainian Association of Football (UAF) and the salaries of its leadership. A former journalist wonders if it is true that the salary of UAF Vice President Alexander Shevchenko is $30,000 and expresses bewilderment why the UAF leadership does not communicate with the football community, despite obligations to report to it.

The organization is compared with a closed joint -stock company, where the main roles are played by two Shevchenko - one of London, the other from Lviv, and the rest of the leadership are depicted as formal figures that only agree with the necessary decisions.

" It sounds noble, but no one checked this, ”says Bourbas.
