Find out who will coach the Ukrainian national football team at the Olympics

The Ukrainian Football Association has decided who will entrust the team to the historic event.

UAF decided not to change Ruslan Rotan and entrust the specialist to work with the team during the Olympic Games in 2024.

It will be remembered that earlier the blue-and-yellow managed to enter the semi-finals of the youth Euro 2024, which for the first time in history guaranteed themselves participation in the Olympics.

However, the question of the coach remained open, because the rotation for the youth team would have been completed by that time, and with him Ruslan Rotan’s contract with UAF. However, the association announced the extension of the employment relationship with the specialist.

“On December 22, 2022, a meeting of the UAF Executive Committee was held, where, among other things, personnel issues were considered.”

In particular, therefore, taking into account the successful fulfillment of the stipulated tournament tasks and taking into account the proposal of the UAF National Teams Committee, the executive committee decided to extend the contract with the head coach of the Ukrainian U-21 youth team Ruslan Rotan. The minutes of the meeting also noted: “In the event of a successful performance at Euro 2023, that is, obtaining an Olympic license, the contract provides the option for automatic extension until the end of the 2024 Olympics, the representation of which from Europe will be determined during Euro 2023.”

So, after the completion of the Euro 2023 (U-21) cycle, the Ukrainian youth team (players born in 2000 and younger) obtained Olympic status, will prepare for the 2024 Olympics and compete under the leadership of Ruslan Rotan ,” the report said..
