International career

Stankevičius has also played as a defender for the Lithuania national team. In the past, he represented Lithuania at under-21 level. He was captain of the Lithuanian side during the 2012–13 qualifying campaign due to Tomas Danilevičius's retirement, but has not made an appearance since the September 2013 loss to Latvia.

Due to playing in northern Italy, Stankevičius received a call-up for the Padania national team ahead of the 2018 ConIFA World Football Cup.[1]

Coaching career

On 17 November 2018, Stankevičius was appointed as manager of Crema following the departure of Massimiliano Bressan, during a season, where he was supposed to function as a player.[2] He left the club at the end of the season.

In January 2020 he was presented as the new U-17 coach of the Lithuania national football team and Valdas Urbonas's assistant for the senior team.[3]

In July 2020 he was named new head coach of Italian Eccellenza amateurs Lumezzane, while still keeping his coaching position with the Lithuanian national teams.[4][5] Following his appointment as new head coach of the Lithuania national under-21 football team, Stankevičius left Lumezzane in July 2021.[6]

In October 2022, Stankevičius obtained a UEFA Pro coaching license after successfully passing the yearly course organized by the Italian Football Federation.[7]
