Squad

Words at Ararat-Armenia training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Karen Muradyan 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.

Squad

Tempers go at Ararat-Armenia

Kamo Hovhannisyan 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.

Market

The Claudio Correa question follows Ararat-Armenia around

Every press conference now starts and ends the same way: with Claudio Correa’s future. The manager has run out of new ways to say nothing.

Match

Ararat-Armenia march on in the cup

Shirak are out and Ararat-Armenia go through, 1‑0 the final word. The bracket opens up a little, and everyone allows themselves a look at it.

Market

Davit Barseghyan 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 Ararat-Armenia can pretend not to have heard.

Market

Ararat-Armenia turn down Urartu for Arman Nersesyan

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Squad

Jesús Lugo 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 Ararat-Armenia this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Market

Pyunik watching Hakob Hakobyan

The interest is real enough to have reached print. Ararat-Armenia have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

Player ratings

Sandro Lima takes the honours

Marked 7.70 on an afternoon he ran from the first whistle to the last. Whatever else went wrong, Ararat-Armenia had the best player on the pitch.

Squad

Arman Nersesyan 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.

Squad

The plan did not have a place for João Queirós

Nobody at Ararat-Armenia is suggesting he is out of form. The manager simply wanted somebody with a different set of qualities for ninety specific minutes, and there is nothing a player can train to fix that.

Squad

Artur Serobyan stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Artur Serobyan and Ararat-Armenia agree another 4 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad

Words at Ararat-Armenia training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Karen Muradyan 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.

Market

BKMA watching Alexandros Malis

The interest is real enough to have reached print. Ararat-Armenia have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

Squad

Junior Julio 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 Ararat-Armenia this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Market

Talks stall between Ararat-Armenia and Karen Muradyan

“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

The clock runs on João Bravim's contract

49 months left and silence from upstairs — no offer, no talks, nothing for his people to answer. Clubs that let a calendar do their negotiating usually end up negotiating with the calendar.
