Managerial career

He began to transition into the administrative side of soccer and became involved with the ownership of Vorkuta which included persuading the organization to join the professional ranks.[12][13][14] As a result, Vorkuta secured a franchise in the Canadian Soccer League in 2017.[12] He served as the general manager and assistant coach for Samad Kadirov in 2018.[15] Yanchuk would primarily recruit players from the Ukrainian football market which allowed Vorkuta to develop into an elite team in the CSL.[16][17] Throughout the 2018 season, the club won its first CSL Championship against Scarborough SC.[18][19][20] The club found additional success in the league's second division where their reserve team secured the double.[18][19]

He continued in his role as general manager with Vorkuta for the 2019 season.[21] The club found further success in 2019 when they clinched the First Division title and the reserve squad once more defended their double.[22] In 2020, he was assigned head coach responsibilities for Vorkuta.[23][24] He managed to lead Vorkuta to their second title after defeating Scarborough.[25][24][26][27] In 2021, he became an agent for UEFA.[28] For the 2022 season, Vorkuta was renamed FC Continentals where he once again returned to his role as general manager.[29] The club managed to secure their third championship title after defeating Scarborough once more in the finals.[30]
