Mikhail Golubnichii damages knee ligaments — 15 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 15 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Tempers go at Okzhetpes

Vasiliy Sovpel 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.

Georgy Tigiev falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Timur Islamkhan signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Timur Islamkhan commits to Okzhetpes for another 3 years.

The dugout28 Sep 2026

Nūrğaini Böribaev knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Okzhetpes, and both men came out saying it was fine.

The dugout28 Sep 2026

No hiding place for Timur Islamkhan

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Timur Islamkhan, and the manager let it.

Squad14 Sep 2026

A knee injury of the worst kind for Mikhail Golubnichii

32 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Okzhetpes lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Market14 Sep 2026

Nūrğaini Böribaev is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Okzhetpes is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Boardroom14 Sep 2026

Okzhetpes close the window on a squad of their own making

21 in and 0 out, and no more changes for months. The manager has what he has, the supporters have their opinion of it, and the table will have the last word.

Transfer targets14 Sep 2026

Okzhetpes make their move for Gafurzhan Suyumbayev

$120.0K on the table at Irtysh. The manager wanted him, the board agreed a number, and the only voices still to be heard are the ones at the other club.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Words at Okzhetpes training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Dmitriy Borodin 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.

Market14 Sep 2026

Okzhetpes promote Timur Islamkhan from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Timur Islamkhan 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.

One of our own: Baktiyor Murtazaev joins the Okzhetpes first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Baktiyor Murtazaev is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

The dugout14 Sep 2026

The manager makes an example of Ivan Kuzmichev

“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.

Squad14 Sep 2026

A falling-out at Okzhetpes

Azat Taykenov and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.
