Season events

On 18 July, during pre-season, Karpaty announced that their head coach Myron Markevych has resigned.^[1] Renowned 73 year old Ukrainian manager had left Karpaty for the fifth time in his managerial career. Later in an interview Markevych claimed his resignation was due to differences in vision on club development between him and the president. Markevych desired to compete for European qualification right after getting promoted to the Premier League and demanded more qualified players to achieve that goal, while the president favored more cautious "step-by-step" approach.^[2]

On 19 July, Vladyslav Lupashko, the U-19 team's senior coach, was presented as the head coach of the first team ahead of new season.^[3]
