Metallurgist appointed Anton Guy acting head coach. The coach will introduce his coaching staff to the team on Monday.
37-year-old Guy is a graduate of the Cossacks, and previously played for the youth teams of Ukraine. Since 2021, the specialist has been part of the Metallurg coaching staff.
Earlier, the Cossacks confirmed that they would continue to play in the First League of Ukraine, despite financial problems and the loss of a number of key players. The team will play the first nominally “home” match with Khust in Uman, and then plans to return to Zaporozhye.
Earlier it became known that deputies of the Zaporozhye City Council, when adopting the budget for 2024, significantly cut funding for the KP MFK Metallurg. In view of this, the club started the process of disbanding the second team. In mid-February, Metallurg-2 officially withdrew from the Second League 2023/24.
Also, due to budget cuts, it was announced that at the end of the season the women’s team of the Zaporozhye club would be disbanded.
Metallurg took sixth place in Group B of the First League in the autumn part of the season. The Cossacks will play in the elimination group in the spring. Guy’s team will play the next official match against Khust on March 23.
