After that, Oleksandr Kadenko was unanimously elected president of the Association of Football Clubs "Professional Football League of Ukraine" for four years in accordance with the PFL Charter. The first to greet the appointment of the PFL leader was Andriy Pavelko, President of the UAF and a member of the UEFA Executive Committee, who took part in the event.

"The Extraordinary PFL Conference unanimously elected a new president of the organization. I congratulate Oleksandr Kadenko with such high confidence from the clubs of the first and second leagues and I wish only success in carrying out qualitative changes and reforms for the development of the PFL! - said in his speech the President of the UAF, a member of the UEFA Executive Committee Andriy Pavelko. - Last season became very difficult both for the Professional Football League and for all Ukrainian football due to the COVID-19 pandemic. There was a serious risk that the championship would not be completed on a sporting basis, as has happened in some other European countries. But the timely consolidation of UAF and PFL efforts helped save the season, and the competition was completed not in the offices, but on the football field, as it should be.

And now PFL clubs, as well as in UPL, already have an opportunity to hold matches with fans where the epidemiological situation allows it. Ukrainian football is being revived, and I wish all the clubs of the first and second leagues a successful season, new victories and achievements! ”
