Squad17 Aug 2026

84 days out for Najmiddin Normurodov after a fracture

A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. Bunyodkor will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.

Match12 Aug 2026

Cup progress for Bunyodkor

A 1‑0 win over Shortan, a place in the next round, and the quiet arithmetic every supporter does on the walk home: how many more until a final?

Player ratings17 Aug 2026

Islom Anvarov, 20, plays like he has been here for years — 7.79

A mark of 7.79 means one thing beside a twenty-nine-year-old's name and something else entirely beside a 20-year-old's. Nobody at the ground needed telling which this was.

Market17 Aug 2026

Bunyodkor spend $1.0M to raise the standard

This is not cover and nobody is pretending it is. $1.0M has been paid because Doniyor Ahmedov is straightforwardly better than what was already here, and the club has decided to stop waiting.

Transfer targets17 Aug 2026

Door shut on Alan Tsaraev

Bunyodkor asked and Arsenal Tula said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Match15 Aug 2026

Bunyodkor cannot stop winning

3 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.

Squad17 Aug 2026

A move Doniyor Ahmedov would have made for nothing

There is a version of every career where the player ends up somewhere he chose rather than somewhere that chose him. Doniyor Ahmedov is living that version at Bunyodkor, and it tends to show in the first month.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Tempers go at Bunyodkor

Stefan Purtić 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.

Boardroom17 Aug 2026

Bunyodkor beat the market to Hojimat Erkinov from Pakhtakor

Pakhtakor will keep picking him until June and will get nothing for him after it. Hojimat Erkinov has pre-agreed a move to Bunyodkor, and the only people who lose in that arrangement are the ones who let the contract run down.

Squad10 Aug 2026

92 days out for Najmiddin Normurodov after a fracture

A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. Bunyodkor will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.

Match8 Aug 2026

Bunyodkor run riot against Bukhara

3‑0, and the margin flattered nobody — it could have carried another goal or two without complaint. Afternoons like this are why people keep coming.

Player ratings10 Aug 2026

Narimonjon Ahmadjonov, 21, plays like he has been here for years — 7.76

A mark of 7.76 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.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Đorđe Petrović gets the move he always wanted

Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. Đorđe Petrović has just signed for Bunyodkor, and for once the answer mattered.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

Bunyodkor make their move for Doniyor Ahmedov

$1.0M on the table at Obod. The manager wanted him, the board agreed a number, and the only voices still to be heard are the ones at the other club.

Boardroom10 Aug 2026

Bunyodkor go back to the board over Doniyor Ahmedov

The number the board signed off was not enough. It has been asked again and raised its own offer to $1.1M — a club that wants Doniyor Ahmedov enough to be asked twice.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

The paperwork begins on Denys Tvardovskyi

A medical, a signature, a shirt held up in front of a sponsor’s board. Bunyodkor have done the hard part with Shakhtar, and the part that remains is the part supporters actually see.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Sardor Rahmonov 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 Bunyodkor this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Nosirjon Abdusalomov signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Nosirjon Abdusalomov and Bunyodkor agree another 4 years.

Shohboz Umarov stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Shohboz Umarov and Bunyodkor agree another 4 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Tempers go at Bunyodkor

Sardor Rahmonov 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.

Muhammadyusuf Sobirov 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.

Partizan tell Bunyodkor: Mateja Milovanović 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.

The dugout3 Aug 2026

Muhammadyusuf Sobirov 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.

Player ratings3 Aug 2026

One of those days for Sardor Abdunabiyev

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.08, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Player ratings3 Aug 2026

Matija Krivokapić was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 16. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.

Market3 Aug 2026

Talks stall between Bunyodkor and Najmiddin Normurodov

“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.

Market3 Aug 2026

The clock runs on Shohboz Umarov'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.
