*Club domestic league appearances and goals |
Serhiy Stanislavovych Rebrov (Template:Lang-uk; born 3 June 1974) is a Ukrainian football manager and former player who played as a striker. He is currently in charge of Nemzeti Bajnokság I side Ferencváros.
Rebrov gained international fame as an attacking partner of Andriy Shevchenko at Dynamo Kyiv throughout the 1990s and as of August 2017 is the all-time top scorer of the Ukrainian Premier League together with Maksim Shatskikh.
Rebrov was born in Horlivka, Donetsk Oblast. From his debut in 1992, he was capped 75 times by Ukraine, scoring 15 goals. He played in the nation's first ever World Cup, in 2006.
Club career
Rebrov joined Shakhtar Donetsk as a youth in 1990. In his debut 1991 season, then a 17-year-old, he scored 2 goals in 7 games in the USSR Premier League. In his second season, playing in the newly established Ukrainian Premier League, he became a joint 3rd goalscorer, catching the eye of Dynamo Kyiv scouts.
Dynamo Kyiv
Rebrov moved to Dynamo Kyiv in August 1992 and has since become the highest all-time scorer in the Ukrainian Premier League. His total tally in the league with Shakhtar and Dynamo is 123 goals in 261 games.
He scored several key goals in European competitions, notably in the 1997–98 and 1998–99 seasons of the UEFA Champions League, including a famous goal against Barcelona from a tight angle. Dynamo reached the Champions League semi-final in 1999, but lost to Bayern Munich on aggregate. In the 1999–2000 season, Rebrov became a joint top scorer in the UEFA Champions League with 10 goals (including 2 goals in qualification games) as Dynamo progressed to the last sixteen before going out on head-to-head record against Real Madrid.
England
On 17 May 2000, he was transferred to Tottenham Hotspur for £11 million,[3] where he managed a modest return of 9 goals in 29 games over his first Premier League season, appearing to struggle to adjust to the different style of play in England. Things grew worse for Rebrov after the sacking of George Graham in March 2001, as he was frozen out by new manager Glenn Hoddle, with extremely few first team starts or substitute appearances. He went out on two consecutive loan spells to Fenerbahçe.[4]
Subsequently, Rebrov signed a one-year contract with West Ham United in the Championship after his contract with Tottenham expired.[5] He scored just once in the league for West Ham, the winner in a 3–2 win over Watford on 27 November 2004.[6] He also scored once in the League Cup against Notts County.[7]
Return to Dynamo Kyiv
On 1 June 2005, Rebrov became a free agent after declining to re-sign and two days later he signed a new two-year contract with Dynamo Kyiv, with the option of a one-year extension. In the new 2005–06 season, Rebrov became Dynamo's top scorer with 13 goals, two behind league joint top scorers Brandão and Okoduwa, despite playing in midfield. Rebrov also topped the league in points, with goals and assists – and was named player of the season according to a poll of team managers and captains.
In July 2007, Rebrov became Dynamo's captain. In the 2007–08 season, he was mostly benched, starting only seven out of eighteen matches before the winter break. His contribution in some games was heavily criticised by the press. It was reported that Rebrov could move to Arsenal Kyiv during the transfer window. However, under new manager Yuri Semin, Rebrov started all games and was named best player at the close season Channel One Cup. In February 2008, Dynamo president Ihor Surkis stated that the club was planning talks with Rebrov with a view of extending his contract.[8] Shortly thereafter, Rebrov received an offer of a two-year contract from Russian Premier League club Rubin Kazan.
Rubin Kazan
On 3 March 2008, Dynamo announced that Rebrov had signed a two-year contract with Rubin Kazan and would join the new club at the end of the season, in summer 2008.[9] With the Russian season starting in spring, Rubin eventually agreed a $1 million compensation with Dynamo for Rebrov's early release from his contract.[10] He was part of the team that won the 2008 Russian Premier League for the first time in Rubin's history, playing in midfield in 24 out of his team's 30 league matches and scoring 5 goals.
Retirement
Rebrov's retirement was announced on 20 July 2009. At the same time he became an assistant manager at Dynamo Kyiv reserves team.[11] During his career he played in various European Leagues with 423 games recorded and 145 goals netted. His career achievements resulted in him being inducted into the Viktor Leonenko Hall of Fame in March 2012.
In August of 2009 Rebrov returned for short period of time to the big football by joining amateur club from Kiev suburbs FC Irpin Horenychi. He took part in the 2009-10 Ukrainian Cup where his Irpin lost to FC Volyn Lutsk.[12][13] In fall of the same year Rebrov also played couple of games for Irpin in Mykolaiv Oblast in the 2009 Amateur League.[14][15][16]
Managerial career
On 17 April 2014, Rebrov was named caretaker manager of Dynamo Kyiv. On 19 May, after the victory in Ukrainian cup he was named manager.
Dynamo Kyiv
During Rebrov's reign as manager, Dynamo Kiev went on to win two Ukrainian Premier League titles, two Ukrainian Cup titles, one Ukrainian Super Cup. In the 2015–16 season, the team also progressed past the group stages of the UEFA Champions League for the first time in over 15 years, into the knockout rounds. The season before Rebrov lead Dynamo Kyiv in a successful 2014–15 UEFA Europa League campaign, which included a memorable 5–2 win over Everton in the Round of 16 second leg. Rebrov confirmed his resignation as manager on 31 May 2017 following his contract expiry, after the club's final game of the season, against Chornomorets Odessa.[17]
Ferencváros
On 22 August 2018, Rebrov was named manager of Hungarian side Ferencváros after the club's failure to qualify for the UEFA Europa League.[18]
International career
Rebrov scored Ukraine's first ever World Cup goal in their opening qualifying group 9 match in 1998, against Northern Ireland. The match in Belfast finished 1–0 thanks to Rebrov's contribution. Ukraine finished 2nd in the group behind Germany, with Rebrov again scoring the winner in another 1–0 victory away to Albania in March 1997, and at home to the same team in August. His three goals helped his team into the play-offs, where they lost 3–1 on aggregate to Croatia.
Rebrov's club exploits earned him a recall to the national team and a ticket to the 2006 FIFA World Cup in Germany, where he scored a long range shot against Saudi Arabia as Ukraine progressed to the quarterfinals before going down to Italy.
At the time of his retirement on 20 July 2009 he was the fourth most capped player in the Ukrainian national team's history having represented his country 75 times and was their second all-time scorer with 15 goals.
Personal life
Rebrov is a licensed amateur radio-operator and an active contester and has been active with the following callsigns: UT5UDX (Ukraine), M0SDX (England), TA2ZF (Turkey) and UT0U(Ukrainian contest-callsign). Most recent call is 5B4AMM (Cyprus). [19]
