Three names remain in contention — Levski Sofia’s coach Radoslav Arsov, former Bulgaria and Ukraine coach Ivan Petkov, and Marcello Abbondanza, also a former Bulgarian national team coach. The final decision is expected next week after further consultations about each candidate’s vision for the team’s development.

- Men U22: Daniel Peev & Georgi Petrov
