In 2017, work on the reconstruction of the new stadium began. Tribunes for 3,000 seats were made at the stadium, the football field was covered with artificial turf, and the athletics tracks were made of rubber. The basement, where the medical center, locker rooms and arbitrators' rooms are located, has been repaired. The reconstruction of the Yunost Stadium cost ₴55 million in 2019.

In 2019, the Yunost Stadium was completed, becoming a modern sports facility for the children's and youth school of the Olympic football reserve. The football field became one of high quality artificial turf. There are also rubber athletics tracks, a mini-soccer field, a long-jump track and stands containing a total of 3,000 spectator seats.

In 2020 Dmitry Adehiro created a mural with the image of Andriy Yarmolenko, during the reconstruction of the building of the Yunost Youth Sports School, just beside the Stadium.

Expanded

After the election of Volodymyr Zelensky as President of Ukraine, the sports facility was included in the "Great Construction" and there began an additional stage of reconstruction of the thermal modernization of the building itself. Initially, a complete reconstruction of the stadium's basement was carried out, including the installation of: a football field with an artificial surface of the latest generation, measuring 105 x 68 metres; athletics tracks; an electronic scoreboard; and covered stands. A total of ₴51 million were spent, of which ₴44 million were funds from the State Fund for Regional Development, and ₴7 million were funds from the local budget. As for the "Big Construction", at the expense of a subvention for the socio-economic development of certain areas in 2020, the sports school was overhauled with a total cost of ₴4.1 million. Windows and doors were completely replaced with energy-saving ones, new lighting was installed in gyms, the floor was partially replaced and the facade was repaired and decorated with two murals. In 2020, Dmitry Adehiro created a mural with the image of Andriy Yarmolenko, during the reconstruction of the building of the Yunost Youth Sports School, just beside the Stadium. On 10 December 2020, for World Football Day, a sports complex of a special child-youth school and an Olympic reserve for football "Yunist" was opened. President of the Ukrainian Association for Football Andriy Pavelko was present at the opening ceremony, as were Anatoliy Demyanenko and Oleh Protasov.

Museum and new tenants

In addition, the sports complex now has the Museum of Football History of Chernihiv Oblast, where in which a stand about the same Andriy Yarmolenko took a prominent place. His parents were invited to inaugurate the museum and his mother recollected that Andriy began to play with the ball from the age of 4–5 years. "In the beginning he did not even have a proper ball, so had to play with a self-made one. We were poor and real football was a luxury in those times". Due to the war in Donbas, the club of Olimpik Donetsk had to play in a different stadium and in October 2021 played in the stadium within the Ukrainian First League, against Kramatorsk in the season 2021-22 and started to use it as one of its home stadia.

At the modern Yunost Stadium, on a sunny and warm October day 2021, Chernihiv hosted the Open Football Lessons project of the Ukrainian Football Association and the Football Development of Ukraine Charitable Foundation. The festival was organized by the Chernihiv Regional Football Association and educators of Chernihiv and the region.
