Mykyta was under the charge of his grandma as his mother worked in the capital. At that time Burda started training at the local sports school.
His first coach was Yuriy Krezhevytskyi. He noticed that the boy had a talent to be defender.
When coach’s sense is right
When Mykyta was 13 Yuriy Krezhevytskyi took him to the trial at KyivSportsSchool feeling that his trainee was ready to feature on the higher level. The coach was right. Burda stayed in Kyiv and started training under the charge of Olexandr Petrakov. Three years later Mykyta joined FC Dynamo Kyiv Academy. His coach there was Olexiy Drotsenko.
Upstairs step by step
Later Burda performed for Dynamo U-19 and won the first U-19 League with the White-Blues. Mykyta even was the skipper of that team.
The following season Burda made another step forward and joined Dynamo U-21. Anyway his main goal always was to feature for the main squad.
On August 23 young defender performed for the first team against FC Zirka Kirovohrad in the Ukrainian Cup round of 32 (3:1) and made a good impression on the White-Blues head coach Serhiy Rebrov.
