Only the photograph left for Alexey Legchilin
Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Alexey Legchilin will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Lida the goodbyes have quietly begun.
Player ratings10 Aug 2026
Both of them Alfred Mazurich's — 8.05
2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.05, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.
The terraces10 Aug 2026
A $46.0K sale, and a town that did not want it
Artem Salygo has gone, the accounts have $46.0K in them, and the supporters have the feeling of having been sold something themselves. Good business and a good decision are not always the same thing.
Boardroom10 Aug 2026
Alexey Legchilin has agreed to leave Lida for nothing
He will play here until the summer and then walk out of the door for free, having already signed elsewhere. Supporters will manage the first part of that sentence; it is the second they will struggle with.

Nobody could get near Ivan Kontsevoy
Successful dribbles: 23. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Words exchanged at Lida
Alexey Legchilin 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
Lida baulk at the price for Guljigit Borubaev
Neman wanted more than $69.0K and the board would not go there. Walked away, for now, which in a transfer window means until somebody blinks.

Business is business: Artem Salygo goes
Naftan paid $46.0K and Lida took it, which is the whole story in one sentence. The longer version involves a wage budget and will be told all season.

Volna Pinsk tell Lida: Vitaliy Kibuk 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.
