Squad24 Aug 2026

A knee injury of the worst kind for Maxim Tagybergen

125 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Akzhaiyk lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Market24 Aug 2026

Ordabasy come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Akzhaiyk did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Market24 Aug 2026

Gafurzhan Tagybergen turns Irtysh down

“It was not right for me. I am not going to explain why to anybody except the people I owe an explanation to.” A deal agreed between two clubs, and a player who declined to be part of it.

Market24 Aug 2026

Maxim Tagybergen hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Akzhaiyk can pretend not to have heard.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Yeldos Tymoshchuk 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 Akzhaiyk this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Rinat Nurgaliev 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.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Akzhaiyk are still strangers to each other

5 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.

The dugout24 Aug 2026

No hiding place for Islambek Tagybergen

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

The dugout24 Aug 2026

Azat Dosmagambetov gets picked when it counts

Every manager keeps a short list in his head of the men he wants on the pitch when the stakes rise, and it is never published. The team sheets for the big afternoons say Azat Dosmagambetov is on it.

From our football correspondent Crisis

Market10 Aug 2026

Erbol Shomko asks to leave Akzhaiyk

“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 targets10 Aug 2026

The paperwork begins on Nūrbergen Nūrbol

A medical, a signature, a shirt held up in front of a sponsor’s board. Akzhaiyk have done the hard part with Zhetysu, and the part that remains is the part supporters actually see.

Player ratings10 Aug 2026

Rinat Nurgaliev was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 23. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Azat Postnikov stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Azat Postnikov and Akzhaiyk agree another 4 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad10 Aug 2026

A falling-out at Akzhaiyk

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

Market10 Aug 2026

Zhetysu watching Gafurzhan Tagybergen

The interest is real enough to have reached print. Akzhaiyk have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

The dugout10 Aug 2026

The manager makes an example of Azat Postnikov

“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.

Match8 Aug 2026

A bad afternoon for Akzhaiyk against Shakhter

0‑1 to Shakhter, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

The dugout10 Aug 2026

Aibol Taykenov faces the questions

“We were not good enough today and I am not going to dress it up.” Aibol Taykenov after 0‑1, in the tone of a man who knows the next question and does not intend to answer it.
