Squad

Daud Daliev signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Daud Daliev commits to Kaluga for another 4 years.

Squad

Ilja Grischenko 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 Kaluga this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Market

Kolomna join the queue for Yegor Lipaev

Add another name to the list: Kolomna have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Yegor Lipaev. The answer from Kaluga has not changed — yet.

Match

Dinamo Vladivostok take the points off Kaluga

Beaten 0‑1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

The dugout

Vyacheslav Dorovskikh 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.

Market

Talks stall between Kaluga and Daud Daliev

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

Market

49 months and counting on Ilja Grischenko

Still no offer on the table, and Ilja Grischenko’s deal keeps shrinking. In boardroom language, silence this long stops being an oversight and starts being an answer.

Squad

Kaluga are still strangers to each other

10 new signings in one window. Every one may be an upgrade and the side can still be worse for a while, which is the part of a rebuild the verdicts never mention.

The dugout

The view from the dugout

“We will look at it, we will learn from it, and we go again.” The three sentences every manager keeps for a 0‑1 defeat, delivered by Lev Fadeev to a room that had heard them before.

In brief

  • Squad Words at Kaluga training over how hard people work
  • Market Alexey Polev is free to find somewhere else
  • Looking ahead Kaluga take on the side everybody is chasing
