'''Oleh Valeriyovych Protasov''' ({{langx|uk|Олег Валерійович Протасов}}; born 4 February 1964) is a [[Ukraine|Ukrainian]] and [[Soviet people|Soviet]] former [[Association football|footballer]] who played as a [[Striker (association football)|striker]]. He was a key member of the [[Soviet Union national football team|Soviet Union national team]] throughout the 1980s; his 28 goals for the Soviet Union are second in the team's history, behind [[Oleg Blokhin]]'s 42. It should be considered that his first name is often spelled as '''Oleg''' on most of international rosters, particularly during his playing career.

==Club career==
Oleh Protasov started playing football at the age of 8 years old in his hometown of [[Dnipropetrovsk]] in [[Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk]], where he played until 1987. In 1987, Protasov moved to play for the [[Soviet Union|Soviet]]-[[Ukraine|Ukrainian]] football giants, [[Dynamo Kyiv]]. In all, in the [[Soviet Union]], he won the [[Soviet Top League|Soviet Championship]] twice and was named [[Soviet Footballer of the Year]] in 1987. He scored 125 goals in the Soviet Championship, making him the 8th best scorer of all-time of the Championship.

Following the fall of the Soviet Union, Oleh Protasov got a chance to play abroad. In 1990, he joined Greek side [[Olympiacos F.C.|Olympiacos Piraeus]]. Leaving Olympiacos in 1994, he played in [[Gamba Osaka]], [[Veria FC]], and finally [[Proodeftiki FC]], from where he retired in 1999.

==International career==
Protasov played for the Soviet Union 68 times, including at the [[1986 FIFA World Cup|1986]] and [[1990 FIFA World Cup|1990]] [[FIFA World Cup]]s, as well as [[1988 UEFA European Football Championship|Euro 88]], where he scored two goals. He also played one game for the [[Ukraine national football team|Ukraine national team]], in 1994.

In 1983, Protasov took part in the Summer Spartakiad of the Peoples of the USSR, representing the Ukrainian SSR.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20150321145618/http://football.lg.ua/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=6645:1983spartakiadanarodovsssrraster&catid=208:sovietua83&Itemid=775 Composition of teams at the Summer Spartakiad of the Peoples of the USSR].</ref>

==Coaching career==
After retiring as a player, Protasov went into coaching, and led [[Olympiacos F.C.|Olympiacos Piraeus]] to the Greek title in 2003. In 2005, he coached Romanian team [[FC Steaua București|Steaua București]].

===Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk===
In December 2005, Oleh Protasov returned in Ukraine to coach his hometown team, [[FC Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk|Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk]], after an impressive [[UEFA Cup 2005–06|UEFA Cup]] performance with [[FC Steaua București|Steaua București]]. Protasov left by his own choice and was on very good terms with the entire team and owners of the club.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20051217152034/http://www.uefa.com/competitions/UEFACup/news/Kind=1/newsId=379260.html Protasov parting on good terms] – uefa.com; Thursday 15 December 2005</ref>

In his first [[Ukrainian Premier League 2005–06|2005–06 season]] as Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk's coach, Oleh Protasov led the team to a 6th-place finish in the [[Ukrainian Premier League]]. In the next, [[Ukrainian Premier League 2006–07|2006–07 season]], Protasov improved on this, finishing 4th in the league.

In the [[Ukrainian Premier League 2007–08|2007–08 season]] his side unexpectedly led the title race ahead of the winter break, before a poor second half left his side in 4th once again. Dnipro sacked him on 29 August 2008 after an embarrassing defeat from [[AC Bellinzona]] in UEFA cup qualification match.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20080903001531/http://www.uefa.com/footballeurope/news/kind=2/newsid=745165.html Protasov carries the can at Dnipro] – uefa.com; Tuesday 2 September 2008</ref>

===Kuban Krasnodar===
After that, Protasov took over [[FC Kuban Krasnodar]] in the nearby region of Russia. Kuban had been recently relegated to the [[Russian First League]]. Under Protasov's leadership, the club finished 2nd in the [[Russian First Division 2008|league]], with an 8-point lead over their nearest competitors. This finish earned them right to be promoted to the [[Russian Premier League]].

However FC Kuban was affected by the [[2008 financial crisis]], which greatly decreased the club's budget. In a mutual agreement with the club, Protasov left the club on 19 November 2008.<ref>[http://ua-football.com/foreign/russia/49253dbf.html Олег Протасов: "Все вопросы с "Кубанью" уладим без шума" (Oleh Protasov: "We will handle all questions with 'Kuban' without much noise"] – ua-football.com {{in lang|ru}} 20 November 2008</ref>

===Iraklis Thessaloniki===
Then, he signed a two-year deal worth 400,000 euro per year with [[Iraklis Thessaloniki F.C.|Iraklis Thessaloniki]], starting from the summer of 2009. On 30 October, it was announced by Iraklis F.C. the termination of their contract, after 5 continual defeats in Super League and Greek Cup.

===Astra Giurgiu===
On 13 October 2014, Oleg became manager of [[FC Astra Giurgiu]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.uefa.com/uefaeuropaleague/news/0253-0d7faa31bfd9-bdbd90c88fb1-1000--protasov-positive-as-he-takes-charge-at-astra/|title=Protasov positive as he takes charge at Astra|date=13 October 2014|work=[[UEFA]]|access-date=3 January 2015}}</ref> He was sacked on 2 March 2015.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.afcastragiurgiu.ro/stiri/stiri-club/99-despartire-de-oleg-protasov.html|title=Despărţire de Oleg Protasov|date=2 March 2015|work=afcastragiurgiu.ro|access-date=2 March 2015}}</ref>

===Aris Thessaloniki===
Protasov agreed on a three years contract with [[Aris Thessaloniki F.C.|Aris Thessaloniki]], though Arvanitidis expulsion as head of the football department of the club, led to amateur Aris to terminate the deal after 15 minutes of its announcement.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.sport24.gr/football/omades/Aris/karypidhs-anti-arvanitidh-ston-arh.3655430.html|title=Καρυπίδης αντί Αρβανιτίδη στον Άρη|first=Επιμέλεια: Δημήτρης Σαμόλης Δημοσίευση: 09|last=Σεπ. 2015 21:51|website=sport24.gr}}</ref>

==Personal life==
Protasov is married to Natalia (née – Lemeshko), a daughter of [[Yevhen Lemeshko]].{{citation needed|date=October 2020}} He is a naturalised citizen of [[Greece]] and is able to speak [[Greek language|Greek]], alongside [[English language|English]], [[Russian language|Russian]] and his native [[Ukrainian language|Ukrainian]].<ref>https://www.scotsman.com/news/bloomin-help-called-littlehampton-2347129 {{Dead link|date=February 2022}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.hmfckickback.co.uk/index.php?/topic/113871-oleg-protasov-and-piotr-nowak/|title = Oleg Protasov and Piotr Nowak| date=9 June 2012 }}</ref>
