A knee injury of the worst kind for Arseniy Fedorov

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

Artyom Kuznetsov asks to leave Khimik

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Graduation day at Khimik

9 boys move up, and somewhere in the building the people who coached them at twelve are quietly having the best morning of their working year. Nothing about this shows up in a result and it is why the academy exists.

Khimik promote Egor Rogov from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Egor Rogov 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.

Khimik promote Gavriil Kobzev from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Gavriil Kobzev 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.

Alexandr Medvedev steps up from the Khimik academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Alexandr Medvedev 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.

Boardroom18 Jun 2040

The scrutiny sharpens at Khimik

Nobody upstairs has said anything, which is the loudest thing they could do. Results buy silence in this game; the account at Khimik is running low.

Market18 Jun 2040

Dmitry Anisimov is on his way

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

Market18 Jun 2040

Arseny Spiridonov 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 Khimik can pretend not to have heard.

Boardroom18 Jun 2040

Khimik to lose Dmitry Anisimov for free

There is no worse way to lose a footballer. Dmitry Anisimov has pre-agreed a move away, which means every appearance between now and June is made by a man the club can no longer sell, and somebody upstairs will be asked why the contract was allowed to get here.

Loris Embolo 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.

Squad18 Jun 2040

Justas Dubickas has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Khimik will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.
