Career

Kulach is a product of FC Olimpik Donetsk academy, with which he participated in competitions of the Ukrainian Youth Football League. In 2010, he signed with FC Shakhtar Donetsk. Until 2013, he played for various Shakhtar reserve teams, and after that, he was loaned out to other clubs. While still playing at the Olimpik academy, Kulach was called up to play for the Ukraine national junior teams, for which he became a regular after signing with Shakhtar.

Kulach was a member of the Ukraine U21 national team, where he was called-up first time by Serhiy Kovalets for Valeriy Lobanovskyi Memorial Tournament in 2013.[1]

In 2016, he went on to play abroad for the first time, when he was loaned to Eskişehirspor, which struggled in the Turkish Super League. Kulach had recorded only 4 appearances for the club, and after Eskişehirspor was eventually relegated, Kulach returned to Shakhtar. The next season, he was loaned to Zorya Luhansk, with which Kulach made his first appearance in UEFA club competitions, 2016–17 UEFA Europa League.

In 2020, without playing a single game for the first team, Kulach left Shakhtar and signed with Vorskla Poltava. In the first season with Poltava, he reached the 2020 Ukrainian Cup final, where Vorskla lost to Dynamo Kyiv on penalty. The very next season, Kulach became a top scorer of the 2020–21 Ukrainian Premier League with Vorskla and qualified for the UEFA club competitions.

In January 2023 he moved to Zira.[2]

On 7 July 2024, Pyunik announced the signing of Kulach.[3] Less than one month later, on 4 August 2024, Pyunik announced that Kulach had left the club due to personal issues.[4]
