Words at Zira training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Qismət Alıyev 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.

Tempers go at Zira
Eren Aydın 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.

The manager makes an example of Rövlan Muradov
“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Match11 Jan 2027
Khazar up to position 2
38 points on the board and a place in the leading group. Nobody at the ground is saying the word out loud yet.
Market11 Jan 2027
Khazar say no — this time
The offer from Gabala for Samir Medvedev 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.
Squad11 Jan 2027
Enrico Bruno 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 Khazar this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.
Squad11 Jan 2027
Ruslan Sadygov falls out with a teammate over standards
The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.
Market11 Jan 2027
Both sides expect a conversation in the coming days. Khazar will name a price, and everything after that is arithmetic.
Loan watch11 Jan 2027
“I watch every Khazar game from here. That says everything about where my head is.” The loan at Kapaz runs its course, but his heart never made the trip.

Uneasy
Squad4 Jan 2027
Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 21 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.
Market4 Jan 2027
Al-Fateh come back empty-handed
The bid was some way short and Khazar did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.
Market4 Jan 2027
“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.
Squad4 Jan 2027
An individual honour is a strange thing in a team game, and the best of them are never argued with. He has had the sort of year that ends with his name being read out, and Khazar have had the benefit of it.
Squad4 Jan 2027
“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

The cup run ends for Khazar
3‑5 against Inter, and the road stops here. Cup exits are quick deaths — no second leg, no next week, just the league from now until May.

There were 8 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.
Player ratings7 Dec 2026
Samuel Lobato pops up at the right end — 7.38
7.38, 1 on the scoresheet, and the specific comedy of a back-four player celebrating like somebody who does this every week. He does not, and that is exactly why the ground reacted the way it did.
Match5 Dec 2026
4 matches without a win for Khazar
The run now stands at 4, and the questions being asked around Khazar are no longer polite ones.

Samir Medvedev did the work nobody counts — 6.67

A season average of 7.67 with 24 goals behind it. Opponents have started planning around him, which is the sincerest compliment football pays.

Still nobody has beaten Khazar
The unbeaten run reaches 14. Some of them were wins and some were escapes, but a side that refuses to lose is a side other dressing rooms talk about.

The match ball belongs to Mehmet Sahin, whose 3 goals turned a difficult afternoon into a procession.

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 9.52, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 7 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Khazar cannot stop winning
5 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.
