Andreas Hanche-Olsen arrives at CSKA Moscow in a $14.2M statement of intent
There comes a point where a club either backs its own ambition or admits it does not have any. CSKA Moscow have paid $14.2M for Andreas Hanche-Olsen, which is the loudest way there is of saying which one it chose.
Player ratings24 Aug 2026
Both of them Luciano Gondou's — 9.42
2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 9.42, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Not going: Danila Kozlov stays at CSKA Moscow
“I know what people will say. I know what I want, and it is here.” Minsk had the fee agreed and the shirt ready; they did not have the player, and now they will not.
Transfer targets24 Aug 2026
CSKA Moscow bid $5.2M for Maksim Samorodov
The offer went to Akhmat Grozny this week and it is theirs to answer. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loud the door closes.

Akhmat Grozny tell CSKA Moscow: Maksim Samorodov is not for sale
The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Matheus Alves, 21, plays like he has been here for years — 8.09
A mark of 8.09 means one thing beside a twenty-nine-year-old's name and something else entirely beside a 21-year-old's. Nobody at the ground needed telling which this was.

CSKA Moscow say no — this time
The offer from Novi Pazar for Milan Gajić was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.
Match22 Aug 2026
CSKA Moscow cannot stop winning
4 wins on the spin now, and the question has changed from whether the run ends to who ends it. Confidence like this cannot be bought; it has to be earned exactly this way.

Ivan Oblyakov 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 CSKA Moscow this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.
