Marked for Ivan Gluschenko

Transfer targets

Dmitriy Podstrelov will not be coming to Niva

Terms were offered and declined. Whether it was the wages, the role or the town, nobody at Dinamo Minsk is saying, and nobody at Niva is enjoying the guessing.

Market

Ivan Gluschenko asks to leave Niva

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Transfer targets

Maxim Autko is a medical away from Niva

The deal with Neman is done in every sense but the one that puts him on the pitch. Nothing goes wrong at this stage, except on the occasions when it does.

Squad

Dmitriy Sibilev 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 Niva this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

The dugout

No hiding place for Zaur Kasaev

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Zaur Kasaev, and the manager let it.

Squad

A row about effort at Niva

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Ilya Rabeshko was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Boardroom

Wages eat 105% of everything Niva earn

There is a figure at which a wage bill stops being ambitious and becomes the reason nothing else is possible, and this club has reached it. Nothing is left over for a transfer, a stand or a rainy afternoon.

Squad

11 new faces, and Niva are still learning each other

A squad rebuilt inside one window pays for it in a currency nobody budgets for. The football is not worse than the sum of the players; it is worse than the sum of the players who have played together before.

Transfer targets

Niva try to borrow Pavel Tarletskiy

Minsk have been asked whether they would lend him. Loans are agreed quickly or not at all, and this one will be one or the other by the weekend.

Market

Artem Kuratnik has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Niva they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Squad

Dmitriy Sibilev 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 Niva this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Pavel Klenje signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Pavel Klenje commits to Niva for another 3 years.

Squad

Words at Niva training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Artem Kuratnik 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.

Market

Niva and Dmitriy Galuza are talking past each other

“There is a gap, and pretending there is not helps nobody.” Neither side has moved, and the calendar is working for exactly one of them.

Squad

A promotion for Artem Kuratnik

Not a new contract, not a new number: a new place in the manager’s thinking, which is the only promotion in football that actually matters. Artem Kuratnik has moved up it.

In brief
