Svetoslav Dimov Barkanichkov (Bulgarian: Светослав Димов Бърканичков) (born 1 March 1974) is a Bulgarian footballer who currently plays for Levski 2007 from Levski in the V Group.[1]
Club Career
Born in Pleven, Barkanichkov has been a squad member of numerous clubs in the top division of Bulgarian football, most notably becoming champion of Bulgaria twice - in 2001 (with Levski Sofia)[2] and in 2004 (with Loko Plovdiv). In the mid to late 2000s, he also donned the shirt of teams from Poland.[1]
International Career
In 2001, after having impressed Uzbek scouts during an Albena Cup match between Levski Sofia and Uzbekistan, Barkanichkov received a lucrative financial offer to represent the Central Asian country's national team, but refused it, as he was at the time on then manager of Bulgaria Stoycho Mladenov's radar. Eventually he never got to play international football, as he was plagued by injury problems during the year 2001.[1][3]
Personal
Barkanichkov is presently employed as a fitness instructor in Pleven in addition to continuing to play football at the amateur level in Bulgaria.[1] In 2009 and 2014, he was a participant in the 4th and 5th seasons of Survivor, receiving praise for his performance.[4] Barkanichkov is married and has a son.[1]
