Serhiy Viktorovych Kandaurov (Ukrainian: Сергі́й Ві́кторович Кандау́ров; Russian: Сергей Викторович Кандауров; born 2 February 1972) is a retired footballer who played as a midfielder.

During the 1996 transfer season, Maccabi lost important players like Haim Revivo, Eyal Berkovic, Ofer Shitrit and Alon Hazan, so was time to Kandaurov to lead the team.

[1] Midway into his fourth season, Kandaurov received an offer to join Benfica, which he immediately accepted, in a transfer deal reported to be of a million dollars.

[4] Yet, due to his free-kick and goalscoring record, he still attracted attention from other clubs, and was reportedly offered a contract extension in November 2000.

[6] A free player, he was heavily linked to English football, allegedly Aston Villa,[7] Blackburn Rovers,[8] Burnley,[9] and Bolton.

An international for Ukraine, he made his debut on 26 August 1992, in a loss against Hungary, making five more appearances in the following eight years, with his last arriving on 31 May 2000, in a match against England.
