Myron Markevych

Markevych played as a midfielder for Karpaty Lviv (reserves), SCA Lviv, Spartak Ordzhinikidze, and Torpedo Lutsk.

Markevych graduated from the Institute of Physical Education in Lviv and the Supreme school of coaches in Moscow in 1983. He has managed a number of teams, devoting most of his career to Karpaty Lviv and Metalist Kharkiv. He most notably served as manager of Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk, where he reached the 2015 UEFA Europa League final. Markevych was appointed head coach of the Ukraine national team in early February 2010, but left six months later, submitting his resignation to the Football Federation of Ukraine (FFU) by fax on 21 August 2010. Initially, the legal department of FFU stated that such a document could only be submitted in its original form and the fax copy could not be accepted. Ultimately, the FFU accepted his resignation and appointed Yuriy Kalitvintsev as caretaker manager. In June 2023, Markevych returned for the fifth time to Karpaty Lviv, but resigned a year later.

Markevych is of Polish descent by maternal grandfather. He is fluent in English and Polish. He is married and is the father of two sons, Ostap Markevych and Yuriy Markevych.
