Shakhtar Donetsk head coach Ardu Turan was recognized as the best coach of the Ukrainian Premier League for the 2025/26 season. The press service of the UPL informs about this.
In the fight for the city, the 39-river Turk was ahead of Vitaliy Ponomarov (LNZ), Ruslan Rotan (Polissia), Serhiy Nagornyak (Epicenter) and Patrick van Leeuwen (Kryvbas).
Last season, Turan, after a difficult and unpredictable first half of the campaign, managed to lead the “Girniki” not only to the championship in the UPL, but also to the semi-finals of the Conference League.
Additionally, the UPL previously recognized winger Gleiker Mendoza as the champion of the championship, who at the end of the season signed a contract with the “Girniki”.
