Market

Fedor Lebedev is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Baranovichi is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Boardroom

Fedor Lebedev signs for Dinamo Brest while still at Baranovichi

The rules permit it and it stings anyway. Fedor Lebedev has agreed terms with Dinamo Brest for the summer, and until then he pulls on this shirt as a player who has already chosen his next one.

Squad

Tempers go at Baranovichi

Timur Pukhov was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad

Ilya Kalita arrives at the club he grew up with

Every footballer has an answer to the question about his boyhood club, and most of them never get to act on it. Ilya Kalita has, at Baranovichi, and the first month will show what that does to a man.

Market

Artur Dresmanis attracts admirers

The name of Artur Dresmanis has come up in conversations Baranovichi were not part of. Nothing formal, nothing signed — but nothing about it accidental either.

The dugout

Matvey Papulin gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Squad

Baranovichi are still strangers to each other

17 new signings in one window. Every one may be an upgrade and the side can still be worse for a while, which is the part of a rebuild the verdicts never mention.

Market

Yaroslav Stavrov already looking beyond Baranovichi

He signed expecting a bigger stage than the one he found. It has not taken long, and it has not taken the dressing room long to notice either.

Squad

Words at Baranovichi training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Timofey Tkachev is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Valeriy Potorocha

Successful dribbles: 40. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Match

Stanislav Stefanovich sends Baranovichi through

Cup ties wait for somebody to seize them, and Stanislav Stefanovich obliged against Arsenal Dzerzhinsk. 3‑2 on the night, and the name in the next round’s hat is Baranovichi.

Player ratings

A brace, and Stanislav Stefanovich takes the afternoon — 8.52

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Stanislav Stefanovich provided it, and the 8.52 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Market

Only the photograph left for Artem Petrenko

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Artem Petrenko will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Baranovichi the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Squad

Matvey Papulin gets the move he always wanted

Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. Matvey Papulin has just signed for Baranovichi, and for once the answer mattered.

Market

Baranovichi say no — this time

The offer from Ahrobiznes for Maksym Shevchenko was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Market

Daugavpils join the queue for Nikolay Ryabykh

Add another name to the list: Daugavpils have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Nikolay Ryabykh. The answer from Baranovichi has not changed — yet.

Squad

Baranovichi lose Mikhail Bondarenko

33 days, the medical staff say, and medical staff are optimists by profession. The team sheet will look wrong without him.

Boardroom

Baranovichi to lose Artem Petrenko for free

There is no worse way to lose a footballer. Artem Petrenko has pre-agreed a move away, which means every appearance between now and June is made by a man the club can no longer sell, and somebody upstairs will be asked why the contract was allowed to get here.

In brief
