FC Shakhtar sporting director Darijo Srna celebrates his birthday on May 1

Darijo is a Shakhtar legend. As a player, he represented the team from 2003 to 2018, setting the club record for appearances – 536 – and winning 26 trophies with the Miners. For the Orange-and-Blacks’ supporters, Srna became a symbol of dedication and unconditional love for the club, the highest professionalism and leadership – a true captain.

Today, Darijo Srna continues to develop Shakhtar in his role as sporting director. Thanks in part to his efforts, the team, even in the most difficult times, maintain a high level of performance and results on both the Ukrainian and European stages, as this season clearly shows.

We congratulate Darijo on his birthday and wish him, above all, peace and kindness, strong health and family happiness, fulfilment of all his football ambitions and life dreams, as well as memorable and important victories, new titles and trophies, and great achievements with Shakhtar!
