Luis Cortes, the head coach of the Ukrainian women's national football team, has informed the Ukrainian Football Association (UAF) that he is leaving the position of the yellow and blue team's coach. The 36-year-old Spaniard will stop being a coach on 31 August, as soon as his contract expires.
According to sport.es, the reason for this decision was the war and lack of competitiveness. Cortes announced his decision on the last day of the training camp in Portugal in July this year.
