Moroziuk later shared a snap of herself holding up the club’s shirt, and explained her unusual decision to take on the role.
She wrote that when she received the offer, she didn’t waste too much time thinking, as she was a supporter of amateur football in Lviv, her native city.
She added she had been writing about the club since its formation for the Bombardir YouTube channel.
“I believe in our project, and that Lviv Football Federation will support us and allow us to continue to develop and participate in official matches. I have a worthy team!”
A statement from FC Lion echoed her sentiments, as it emphasised that with a President like that they had no right to lag behind and would “always be fighting to win in any situation.”
Irina Moroziuk recently showed off her footy skills in an Instagram video.
