Market

Utenis turn down Saturn for Timur Zhirkov

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Boardroom

Window shuts: 3 in, 1 out at Utenis

The deadline has passed and the squad is the squad. 3 arrived, 1 left, and everything else printed about this club last month was a rumour that stayed one.

Transfer targets

Door shut on Arvydas Satkus

Utenis asked and Stumbras said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Squad

A falling-out at Utenis

Saulius Kuklys and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Squad

A row about effort at Utenis

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

Squad

Karolis Slavickas slips down the pecking order

The demotion a club never announces and a dressing room always notices. Karolis Slavickas is further from the side than he was, and the reason will not be given until he asks.

The dugout

Andrius Novikovas has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Utenis will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.

Market

Still no ink between Utenis and Edgaras Barauskas

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

Squad

A promotion for Fiodor Mikoliunas

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. Fiodor Mikoliunas has moved up it.

Squad

Deividas Slavickas 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 Utenis this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Modestas Novikovas signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Modestas Novikovas and Utenis agree another 2 years.

Transfer targets

Utenis rebuffed over Marko Capan

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Zalgiris have kept their man, and Utenis go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Squad

A row about effort at Utenis

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

Transfer targets

A loan move for Saulius Kuklys is in the works

Utenis have made the call to Trakai. No fee, a share of the wages, and a spare shirt in the position where the squad has been thinnest all season.

The dugout

Deividas Slavickas knocks on the manager’s door

“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and Deividas Slavickas trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.

Market

Talks stall between Utenis and Edgaras Barauskas

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

Market

Tomas Eliosius linked with a move away

The name of Tomas Eliosius keeps appearing in other people's back pages. Utenis say nothing, which says plenty.

Squad

Karolis Slavickas takes the armband

It is a strip of cloth and it decides nothing on a Saturday. It still tells the dressing room exactly whose opinion the manager values, which is the whole point of it.

In brief
