“Who goes where?”: we talk about summer transfers from the Astrakhan Volgar

Transfer summer is the most interesting and most discussed event in the world of sports. All lovers of different sports are interested in who moved? Where did you go? For what? Who was sold? And basically, the interest in transfers is most of all football. And today I want to talk about who left Volgar and who came to the club.

Departed

This summer has become interesting for the main Astrakhan football club of the city. First, the departure of head coach Andranik Babayan from the club. It is still unclear whether he himself left or the contract expired, but Babayan was no longer left without a job. He headed the club from Ulyanovsk, which is called “Volga”. And I think that this is a good step to show myself once again outside the Astrakhan region.

Secondly, as for the players, most of them left the team. Someone after the expiration of lease agreements, and someone after the expiration of the contract itself, and they obviously did not renew it with them. About the lease. Unfortunately, the club was left by the best player of the season, according to the fans – Valery Tsarukyan. Valera, by the way, has already found a new team. He moved to Vladikavkaz Alania. Danil Lipovoy also left a significant mark in the previous season. And also the main players of that season as part of Volgar returned to their clubs – Danila Vedernikov and Danila Kozlov. Both played for the Volzhans for many seasons.

And if we single out those who left the team after the expiration of the contract, then it should be noted that defender Ivan Raschenya and midfielder Alexander Nosov played most of the games. Although there are certain questions about the second one – about the quality of the games played and the mistakes made. And while both have not found their clubs, the other departed have already signed a contract with other clubs.

Nikita Pechenkin – in “Tyumen”, Artyom Delkin moved to Novorossiysk “Chernomorets”, Denis Talalay returned to Nizhnekamsk “Neftekhimik”, and two Astrakhan pupils Alexander Butenko and Dmitry Saganovich moved to a lower rank club – “Mashuk-KMV” from the city of Pyatigorsk.

those who came

If we dealt with the departed players, then it is much more interesting with the players who have come.

The arrival of a new coach – Anver Koneev. And no one knows who he is, what kind of game he will show, and in general, it was very scary to hear that they were going to make a farm club of St. Petersburg Zenit out of Volgar. But judging by the transfers that we observe, this information can be attributed to a rumor and nothing more.

Damir Shaikhtdinov is a graduate of the Spartak Academy, but he spent last season with Zenit-2. The right-back played 21 games for the team from the northern capital and scored two assists in the second league championship.

They also picked up two experienced fighters from Zhigulevsk. Central defender Ilya Zuev and left-back Pavel Shakuro moved as “free agents” to the Astrakhan club. Zuev has a very interesting career in general – he is a graduate of the Zenit Academy. But the 29-year-old defender has already changed three or four clubs. The peak of his career was in Zenit-2, where he played 151 games and scored 20 goals. He played for Akron for the last two seasons, as did Shakuro. Pavel played most of the games for FC Tyumen, but he already has two games in the Russian Premier League – RPL. He spent two matches there for FC Sochi. And speaking of Sochi, 2 players came to Astrakhan on loan.
