Match8 Aug 2026
Navbahor let it slip despite Husain Norchayev
Husain Norchayev had done his part in building a 2-goal cushion. What happened after that was collective, and Neftchi were allowed back into a match that had been finished with.
Player ratings10 Aug 2026
Husain Norchayev scores twice — 8.79
Two goals and a mark of 8.79 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.
Boardroom10 Aug 2026
Navbahor go back to the board over Sūltanbek Astanov
The number the board signed off was not enough. It has been asked again and raised its own offer to $5.1M — a club that wants Sūltanbek Astanov enough to be asked twice.
Transfer targets10 Aug 2026
Bunyodkor tell Navbahor: Matija Krivokapić is not for sale
The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.
Squad10 Aug 2026
Tempers go at Navbahor
Husain Norchayev 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.

Business is business: Sherzod G'ulomjonov goes
Nasaf paid $76.0K and Navbahor took it, which is the whole story in one sentence. The longer version involves a wage budget and will be told all season.

Obod join the queue for Muhammadali G'iyosov
Add another name to the list: Obod have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Muhammadali G'iyosov. The answer from Navbahor has not changed — yet.

One of our own: Akmal Suyunov joins the Navbahor first team
Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Akmal Suyunov is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

One of our own: Timur Ismailov joins the Navbahor first team
Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Timur Ismailov is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.
In brief
- Player ratings Diyor Xolmatov runs at them all day
- Squad 100 appearances for Dilshodjon Komilov
- Squad 17 new faces, and Navbahor are still learning each other
