Sergey Serchenkov breaks a bone — 22 days out
Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 22 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Radomir Kozlov 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 Uralets-TS can pretend not to have heard.

Yuriy Bolshakov comes home
The shirt still fits. Yuriy Bolshakov is back at Uralets-TS, and half the ground remembers him in these colours already. Some signings need selling to the town; this one sold itself.

As if he never left: Luka Yarygin returns
Some transfers need a press campaign. This one needed a shirt with the old number on it. Luka Yarygin is a Uralets-TS player again, and the town has its story of the summer.

Lev Gorbachev is a Uralets-TS player again
He left as a boy and has come back still knowing where the away end is. Most signings have to be explained to a town; this one needed a photograph and nothing else.

Adam Wierzbicki 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 Uralets-TS this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.
In brief
- Squad Tiago Duarte falls out with a teammate over standards
- Boardroom Uralets-TS cannot sign anybody
- Squad Tiago Duarte has become a man the manager trusts
