Playing career edit
Khatskevich is a former player of the Ukrainian club Dynamo Kyiv.
He made 39 appearances and scored four goals for the Belarus national team from 1993 to 2005.[1]
Managerial career edit
After Khatskevich retired from playing, Khatskevich became a football coach. At age 33, his former club, Dinamo Minsk appointed him to replace Pyotr Kachura after the first match of the 2007 Belarusian Premier League season.[2]
From December 2014 until December 2016, he was the head coach of Belarus national team.
On 20 December 2019, he signed with Russian Football National League club Rotor Volgograd.[3] The club only played two games after the resumption of the 2019–20 season after the winter break and then the season was abandoned due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Russia. As Rotor were leading the league at the time of abandonment, the club was promoted to the Russian Premier League. He was dismissed by Rotor on 19 March 2021, with the club in the 13th position in the league.[4]
On 16 January 2024, Khatskevich was appointed manager of last-placed Polish I liga outfit Zagłębie Sosnowiec.[5] On 1 April, during a press conference following a 0–4 home loss to GKS Katowice, he jokingly agreed for the media to send him tactical suggestions to use in future games,[6] and stated he let the players set their own strategy for the lost match,[7] a claim which was refuted by one of Zagłębie's players Kamil Biliński on X the following day.[8] On 3 April, amid allegations of verbal abuse and poor treatment of players by the Belarusian,[9] it was reported that Khatskevich, along with several players, was physically attacked by hooligans on club grounds during a training session.[10][11] He left the club by mutual consent on 5 April 2024.[12]

His son Artyom Khatskevich is also a footballer, most recently playing for Czech side TJ Spohe Praha.[13]
