Kristaps Oss puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Jelgava, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad21 Sep 2026

Tempers go at Jelgava

Janis Jagodinskis 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 dugout21 Sep 2026

Marcis Dubra knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Jelgava, and both men came out saying it was fine.

In brief

Market Igors Zjuzins placed on the list

Karolis Kazlauskas puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Jelgava, and it is not being withdrawn.

Boardroom7 Sep 2026

Window shuts: 0 in, 3 out at Jelgava

The deadline has passed and the squad is the squad. 0 arrived, 3 left, and everything else printed about this club last month was a rumour that stayed one.

Squad7 Sep 2026

A row about effort at Jelgava

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

Squad7 Sep 2026

Jelgava take the armband off Marcis Dubra

It will be explained as a change for the team and it may even be one. Nobody who has worn one believes that, and neither does the man who has just had it taken away.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Olegs Stolcers is no longer first choice

The manager has re-ordered his thinking and Olegs Stolcers has come out of it lower. He will be told it is temporary, and the players who have heard that before will avoid his eye.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Pavels Cauna moves up the pecking order

Nothing is announced when this happens and everybody knows. He is a bigger part of the plan at Jelgava than he was a month ago, and the training ground worked that out before the team sheet said so.

The dugout7 Sep 2026

No hiding place for Eduards Ciganovs

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

Market7 Sep 2026

The market said no: Marcis Dubra stays put

Jelgava opened the door and nobody walked through it. So Marcis Dubra stays — listed, trained, and available — while both sides mark the days to January on the same calendar.

Market7 Sep 2026

Davis Bulvitis leaves for nothing

Contract settled, hands shaken, no fee changing hands. Davis Bulvitis leaves Jelgava the quiet way, and the wage bill breathes a little easier.

From our football correspondent Steady

Market10 Aug 2026

Kristaps Oss 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 Jelgava can pretend not to have heard.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

Marko Capan due for a Jelgava medical

Everything agreed with Zalgiris, everything agreed with the player; a doctor is the only person left to persuade. The photograph is a day or two away.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Marcis Dubra signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Marcis Dubra commits to Jelgava for another 4 years.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Words exchanged at Jelgava

Janis Jagodinskis and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

Jelgava rebuffed over Dimitris Kaloskamis

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

A row about effort at Jelgava
