Club career

A Russian-born Kalitvintsev chose to play for the Ukraine side after breaking through as a midfielder for Dynamo Kyiv. Until 1994 he played he spent his playing career at Russian clubs such as FC Rotor Volgograd, FC SKA Rostov-on-Don, FC Dynamo Moscow, and FC Lokomotiv Nizhny Novgorod. It wasn't until the reorganization of the soviet football when he started to play at the top level of the Russian championship starting for the Moscow's Dynamo. After being transferred to the fading club of Nizhniy Novgorod soon he was offered opportunity from the Ukrainian football giant, Dynamo, which he did not refuse playing alongside such players as Andriy Shevchenko, Serhii Rebrov, Vitaliy Kosovskyi, and others. His playmaking abilities during the late 1990s were particularly useful during his partnership with Serhii Rebrov and Andriy Shevchenko on both the club and national team level where he earned an honorary position of a team captain. Kalitvintsev was named Ukrainian Footballer of the Year in 1995. In 1998, Kalitvintsev earned a paid transfer to play for Trabzonspor in Turkey, returning to play for CSKA Kyiv to finish his playing career in 2000.

International career

Kalitvintsev earned 22 caps for the Ukraine national team.[6] He scored one goal, a very important one against the group favorites, Croatia, at Republican Stadium in Kyiv on 11 June 1995 during qualification to the Euro 1996.

Coaching career

Following his retirement, Kalitvintsev coached FC Zakarpattia Uzhhorod for several years.[4] He was the coach of FC Dynamo-2 Kyiv in 2006–10. In January 2013 Kalitvintsev was appointed the head coach of FC Volga Nizhny Novgorod returning to Nizhniy Novgorod after almost 20 years when he played for Lokomotiv Nizhniy Novgorod.

Kalitvintsev was a coach of several junior Ukraine national football teams that played in tournaments for U-19 and U-17 players. Kalitvintsev was appointed as assistant of head coach Myron Markevych of Ukraine's national football team early February 2010.[7] After Markevych's resignation of late August 2010 Kalitvintsev was appointed Ukraine's caretaker manager on 25 August 2010.[4] On 21 April 2011, Oleh Blokhin was appointed head coach of the Ukrainian national team; Kalitvintsev stayed on as Blokhin's assistant.[8][9]
