Squad2 Nov 2026

Remember the name: Nikita Kuzin

He is 21, he is averaging 7.20, and older professionals have started passing to him in the difficult minutes. That last part is the real scouting report.

Words at Kaluga training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Dmitry Yugaldin 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.

Squad2 Nov 2026

A month that belonged to Nikita Kuzin

The young player of the month award goes to a 21-year-old at Kaluga who has looked like the finished article for four weekends running. The next four are the ones that decide whether he is.

Squad2 Nov 2026

Tempers go at Kaluga

Marcelo González 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.

Loan watch2 Nov 2026

Bogdan Boldyrev wants to come home

“I did not go to Dinamo Barnaul to sit and watch. I want to come back to Kaluga and fight for my place.” 5 appearances in 11 matches say the rest.

Market2 Nov 2026

Still no ink between Kaluga and Marcelo González

“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at Kaluga, another week without a signature from Marcelo González.

Match12 Sep 2026

Kaluga run riot against Avangard

3‑0, and the margin flattered nobody — it could have carried another goal or two without complaint. Afternoons like this are why people keep coming.

Igor Sokolov runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 32. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Nikita Kuzin, 21, plays like he has been here for years — 8.13

A mark of 8.13 means one thing beside a twenty-nine-year-old's name and something else entirely beside a 21-year-old's. Nobody at the ground needed telling which this was.

Market14 Sep 2026

Ivan Matyushenko’s move to Chelyabinsk falls through

The deal that would have taken Ivan Matyushenko to Chelyabinsk has collapsed at the last stage, and he reports back to Kaluga with a summer to forget and a season still to play. Nobody is saying which side walked away.

Match12 Sep 2026

Kaluga cannot stop winning

3 wins on the spin now, and the question has changed from whether the run ends to who ends it. Confidence like this cannot be bought; it has to be earned exactly this way.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Dmitry Yugaldin scored one and made one — 7.79

Two of the goals had his name somewhere on them, which is the afternoon a manager wants from anybody asked to both create and finish. 7.79, and 2 involvements.

Market14 Sep 2026

Eyes on Oleg Lapaev again

The phone has started ringing about Oleg Lapaev again, and this time the name on the line is Znamya Truda. Kaluga are listening politely and promising nothing.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

A masterclass from Sergey Iljin

Marked 8.32 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

Marcelo González in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Kaluga this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.
