Last season he netted 3 goals in 18 appearances. Loaned out to DNEPR Mogilev for the 2021 first league season. 
Aleksey Nosko - Energetik-BGU. The midfielder, 24, was one of the stand out players not only for The Students last year but in the league. Came through the ranks at Neman Grodno before moving to Energetik and a short spell with Dynamo Brest in 2019. I think he'll have a very impressive season for BATE. 
Shahboz Umarov - Energetik-BGU. Scored a fantastic goal for The Students in their 0-1 win at BATE in July which must of impressed the scouts and back room staff as he signed a contract to play for his new club from 2021 only a few weeks later. The 21 year old from Uzbekistan will be looking to impress and improve with BATE.

Artem Miroevsky - Arsenal Dzerzhinsk. The 21 year old attacker joins from the First League side where he was a first team regular last season. With all the players coming in to Rukh he may find it hard to find a regular place in the team.

He is reported to be a free kick specialist and as a midfielder is fond of a gaol too - He will no doubt be competing with Savitiskiy at who will take the set-pieces for the new look side.

David Tweh - Dynamo Brest. Liberian attacking midfielder/winger who plays in the style of Raheem Sterling. He joined Dynamo midway through the 2020 season from Engergetik.

Has 19 International caps for Belarus and is the current record holder for number of consecutive minutes (1,073) played in the Premier League without conceding a goal which he set playing for BATE in 2015. 
Egor Filipenko - BATE Borisov. Highly experienced defender aged 32 who joins from rival's BATE Borisov. He has 52 International caps for Belarus and began his career with BATE back in 2004. He also counts Spartak Moscow, Maccabi Tel Aviv and Malaga as former clubs. He is a seven time title winner in Belarus during his various spells with BATE whom he made 24 appearances for last season. 
Igor Stasevich - BATE Borisov. Many Belarusian fans will tell you Igor has been the best player in the league for a number of years. At 35 years of age the midfielder still is a firm fixtures in the Belarus International side where he currently had 61 caps. He started his career with BATE in 2004 and has also played for Gomel, Dynamo Minsk and had a very brief spell with Russian club Volga Nizhny Novgorod in 2010. He has played over 250 times for BATE and scored over 50 goals. His move to Shakhtyor is likely to be the final one in his illustrious career where he has won the Premier League title nine times with BATE - Could he make it 10 in the 2021 season? 
Valon Ahmedi - KF Shkëndija (North Macedonia). Attacking Midfielder aged 26 who has also played in Italy, Slovenia, Israel and Croatia.

He has never been capped for Belarus but I'm sure this honour may be coming his way in 2021. 
Eze Vincent Okeuhie - Čukarički (Serbia). Nigerian midfielder, 27, who joins after a two season spell in the Serbian Super Liga. He has also played for Vojvodina in Serbia and played in Turkey and Cyprus. It's been reported a fee of 300,000 euros has been paid to secure his signature.

Roman Debelko - Riga (Latvia). Ukrainian forward, 27, who helped Riga to the Virslīga title in 2020 with 4 goals in 16 games. Has also played in Estonia as well as Ukraine. He is 6ft 1inch so has lots of height to use against the defences he comes up against in the 2021 season.
Gleb Shevchenko -  Slavia Mozyr. Midfielder who player 24 league games for Slavia last season and became a cult hero amongst fans in the United Kingdom because of his dreadlocked hair which he trimmed half way through the season. Aged 21 he has represented Belarus at u21, u19 and u18 level. May struggle to find a regular spot in the first team with all the players who have come into Shakhtyor. 
Dembo Darboe (KF ShkupI - North Macedonia). A fee of 700,000 euros was reported to be paid secure attacker Darboe's services which seems a huge amount of money for a Belarusian team to play.  The 22 year old Gambian has scored 17 goals in 19 league and cup games for his KF Shkupi in the 2020/21 season which began in August. One thing to note is that four of those goals came in two games against bottom of the table Belasica with a hat-trick netted agianst Pelister who are also struggling in the relegation zone. The money paid for him may well shine a spotlight on his performances and he will need to hit the ground running - A goal or two on his first appearance may help him settle at his new club.
