Vice-champion of Ukraine Shakhtar are looking for a replacement in case of resignation of the head coach.
Turkish portal “Fanatik” according to the interest of Shakhtar’s head coach “Konyaspor” Team Kocaman, under whose leadership the club from Konya last season suddenly took third place in the super League and secured their debut in the group stage of the Europa League.
According to the source, the scouts Shakhtar will follow the 51-year-old specialist in the next match, “Konyaspor” against “Braga” and “Fenerbahce”. At the end of November, Kocaman himself will come to Ukraine for the second leg with Shakhtar in the group stage of the Europa League.
“Fanatik” notes that the club management is happy with Fonseca, but the current contract of the Portuguese with the Pitmen designed for only two years, but because the “miners” want to protect themselves in case of withdrawal of Fonseca, which will be difficult to hold in Ukraine in case of receiving offers from top-clubs from Western Europe.
Paulo Fonseca became the head of “Shakhtar” may 31, succeeding the Romanian coach Mircea Lucescu. Under the leadership of Fonseca Shakhtar failed to reach the group stage of the Champions League, but won all the matches in the Europa League and surely lead the standings in the championship of Ukraine.
