Squad

A one-man rearguard from Nikita Medvedev

There were 11 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Boardroom

Window shuts: 8 in, 4 out at Nizhniy Novgorod

The deadline has passed and the squad is the squad. 8 arrived, 4 left, and everything else printed about this club last month was a rumour that stayed one.

Market

Alexandr Ektov’s move to Akhmat Grozny falls through

The deal that would have taken Alexandr Ektov to Akhmat Grozny has collapsed at the last stage, and he reports back to Nizhniy Novgorod with a summer to forget and a season still to play. Nobody is saying which side walked away.

Transfer targets

Nizhniy Novgorod rebuffed over Maxim Maximov

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

Match

Artem Sokolov’s goal not enough for Nizhniy Novgorod

Artem Sokolov scored, and precious little else went right: 1‑2 to Dinamo Moscow, and a quiet walk to the dressing room.

Squad

Vadim Yashin out for 14 days

The medical room confirms 14 days on the sidelines for Vadim Yashin, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

Squad

Words at Nizhniy Novgorod training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Edgardo Fariña is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Squad

Ruslan Shagiakhmetov 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 Nizhniy Novgorod this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

The dugout

The view from the dugout

“We will look at it, we will learn from it, and we go again.” The three sentences every manager keeps for a 1‑2 defeat, delivered by Fyodor Devyatkin to a room that had heard them before.

Squad

Nikita Medvedev stands alone

11 saves, and a scoreline the ten men in front of him had no right to. Goalkeepers only get noticed on the bad days; this was one of the other ones.

Match

A hiding for Nizhniy Novgorod

Beaten 0‑3 by Krasnodar, and beaten everywhere it matters. The inquest starts on the training pitch on Monday morning.

Market

CSKA Moscow come back empty-handed

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

Market

Not going: Artem Sidorenko stays at Nizhniy Novgorod

“I know what people will say. I know what I want, and it is here.” Kuban had the fee agreed and the shirt ready; they did not have the player, and now they will not.

Squad

Words exchanged at Nizhniy Novgorod

Nikita Medvedev 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.

Squad

Nikita Kakkoev signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Nikita Kakkoev commits to Nizhniy Novgorod for another 4 years.

Transfer targets

Trakai tell Nizhniy Novgorod: Marius Simkus 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.

Market

Vadim Yashin steps up from the Nizhniy Novgorod academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Vadim Yashin has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

Market

Nizhniy Novgorod promote Artyom Korolev from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Artyom Korolev has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.
