An offer of $13.0M for Lucas Torreira
CSKA Moscow have gone to Galatasaray with a bid, and the supporters have gone to the internet with an opinion about it. Whether either changes anything is up to the selling club.

CSKA Moscow rebuffed over Nino
Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Zenit have kept their man, and CSKA Moscow go back to a list with one name crossed off it.
Transfer targets10 Aug 2026
CSKA Moscow make their move for Aleksa Đurasović
$1.7M on the table at Akron. The manager wanted him, the board agreed a number, and the only voices still to be heard are the ones at the other club.

CSKA Moscow say no — this time
The offer from Torpedo-BelAZ for Vladislav Torop 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.
Market10 Aug 2026
CSKA Moscow may not be able to give Matheus Alves what he wants
It is the most legitimate ambition in the sport and the hardest for most clubs to satisfy. Matheus Alves wants continental football; whether CSKA Moscow can provide it is a question about the next two seasons, not about him.
Boardroom10 Aug 2026
CSKA Moscow go back to the board over Aleksa Đurasović
The number the board signed off was not enough. It has been asked again and raised its own offer to $1.9M — a club that wants Aleksa Đurasović enough to be asked twice.

Matvey Kislyak signs on for more
“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Matvey Kislyak and CSKA Moscow agree another 5 years.

Words exchanged at CSKA Moscow
Ross Barkley 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.
The dugout10 Aug 2026
The manager makes an example of Ivan Oblyakov
“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.
