Perspective
Ukraine
Tymofiyenko was the product of the youth systems of FC Metalurh Donetsk.[1] He ultimately joined the senior team and made his debut on 26 May 2013, entering as a second-half substitute against FC Shakhtar Donetsk in the Ukrainian Premier League.[2] He had limited match-time opportunities as he only played in 2 games throughout his two-year stint.[3] Metalurh loaned him out to FC Stal Alchevsk for the 2013–14 season in the Ukrainian First League.[4] The Luhansk-based club signed Tymofiyenko on a permanent basis the following season.[5]
Hirnyk-Sport Horishni Plavni acquired Tymofiyenko for the 2015–16 season.[6] He furthered his career in the second tier by returning to his home province to play with FC Avanhard Kramatorsk.[1] His first professional goal was recorded with Avanhard in a match against FC Naftovyk Okhtyrka on 9 November 2016.[7] In 2017, he secured a contract with FC Cherkashchyna.[8] The organization experienced financial troubles the following year which resulted in the club being renamed and relegated to the Ukrainian Second League.[9] The club rebounded the next season as it secured promotion to the second tier.[10]
Tymofiyenko would remain in the third tier in 2019 by signing with Veres Rivne.[11][12] After only 3 matches with Veres, he was released from his contract.[13] Veres secured promotion to the second tier which resulted in the recruitment of Tymofiyenko for the 2020–21 season.[14] In his sophomore season with the western Ukrainian club, he aided in securing promotion to the top tier by winning the league title.[15]
His return to the premier league was short-lived as he played in only 12 matches and mutually terminated his contract with the club.[16] Peremoha Dnipro secured the services of Tymofiyenko for the remainder of the season.[17][18]
Canada
In the summer of 2022, he played abroad in southern Ontario in the Canadian Soccer League with FC Continentals.[19][20] Throughout the season he helped the club secure a postseason berth by finishing fourth in the standings.[21] He featured in the CSL Championship final where the Continentals defeated Scarborough SC for the title.[22][23]
After the hiatus of FC Continentals for the 2023 season, he joined league rivals Toronto Falcons.[24] He would help Toronto finish third in the standings.[25]
