Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Alashkert will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Petros Movsisyan steps up from the Alashkert academy

In brief
- Market Alashkert promote Artak Bayramyan from within
