It turned out that the coach of the Ukrainian U19 national team had chronic foot problems, the discomfort in his leg began to increase, and the former defender was forced to go under the knife.
“Volodymyr was diagnosed with a soft tissue mass that caused mechanical irritation and severe pain. This gradually limited his movements and prevented him from fully training. We fixed it,” said Hnat Gerych, head of the surgery department No. 1 of St. Panteleimon Hospital .
