Squad22 Jan 2029

The knee: Milad Mohammadi out for 106 days

106 days on the announcement, and a year of quiet, unwatched rehabilitation behind it. Vitebsk lose a player for a season; he loses something harder to name.

Market22 Jan 2029

Brian Leroy Onana has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Vitebsk they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Squad22 Jan 2029

Tempers go at Vitebsk

Mikhail Bashilov 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.

Squad22 Jan 2029

Words at Vitebsk training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Evgeniy Krasnov 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.

Squad22 Jan 2029

Ihar Kislyak out for 23 days

The medical room confirms 23 days on the sidelines for Ihar Kislyak, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

The dugout22 Jan 2029

Milad Mohammadi gets picked when it counts

Every manager keeps a short list in his head of the men he wants on the pitch when the stakes rise, and it is never published. The team sheets for the big afternoons say Milad Mohammadi is on it.

The knee: Milad Mohammadi out for 136 days

136 days on the announcement, and a year of quiet, unwatched rehabilitation behind it. Vitebsk lose a player for a season; he loses something harder to name.

Market25 Dec 2028

Brian Leroy Onana is on his way

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

Squad25 Dec 2028

Tempers go at Vitebsk

Vadim Gapeev 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.

Squad25 Dec 2028

Ihar Kislyak out for 52 days

The medical room confirms 52 days on the sidelines for Ihar Kislyak, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

The dugout25 Dec 2028

Vitebsk keep their word to Roman Lisovskiy

Clubs make promises constantly and the page usually only hears about them when they are broken. This one was honoured, and the dressing room noticed that faster than any supporter did.

The dugout25 Dec 2028

When it matters, Milad Mohammadi plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

Market6 Mar 2028

Vladlen Anikeev is on his way

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

Market6 Mar 2028

Slutsk come back empty-handed

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

Market6 Mar 2028

Vito Marot comes home

The shirt still fits. Vito Marot is back at Vitebsk, and half the ground remembers him in these colours already. Some signings need selling to the town; this one sold itself.

Squad6 Mar 2028

Preslav Bachev 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 Vitebsk this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Boardroom6 Mar 2028

6 academy players handed senior numbers at Vitebsk

The morning the pathway stops being a brochure and becomes a team sheet. Most of them will not be here in three years; all of them have already done the hard part, which was getting to today.

Transfer targets6 Mar 2028

Vitebsk rebuffed over Nikita Medvedev

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

Match4 Mar 2028

Vitebsk come up short against Slutsk

Slutsk left with the points after a 1‑2 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Market6 Mar 2028

Ihar Kislyak steps up from the Vitebsk academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Ihar Kislyak 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.

The dugout6 Mar 2028

Vladlen Anikeev gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.
