"THE SMOLE MUST GO ON" - A BUSY DAY WITH LOTS OF IN'S AND OUTS AT THE OZYORNY STADIUM


The reported financial problems with Belarusian Premier League side Smolevichi-STI have seen lots of movement both in and out of the club today. 

Manady Alexander Brazevich has left the club with many players also departing. Winger Jean Morel Poe who was on loan from Torpedo Belaz Zhodino has left and his contract with his parent club has ended - He is currently without a club but i'm sure the talented 23 year old Ivorian will find somewhere soon. 

Taking over from Brazevich is Alexei Mijhailov who was previously Asssitant Manager. 

Joining on loan from Dynamo Minsk are Nikita Khalimonchik, Nikita Demchenko, Vladislav Lozhkin and Kirill Rodionov along with Arseny Kontsedaliov (from First league side Oshmyan) and Leonid Khankevich. 

Kontsedaliov is a Russian midfielder who has made 11 appearances for Oshmyan this season netting 4 goals. The 22 year old has formerly played for FC Minsk and Energetyk in the Premier League. 

Centre-Forward Khankevich, 24, was with Gorodeya last season but only played a few games. He is a tall target man standing at 6 feet 2 inches. 

Defender Khalimonchik, 20, is yet to make an appearance for Dynamo Minsk this season. He has been an unused substitute 12 times. Demchenko is only 17 years old and also yet to make an appearance for Dynamo. 

Lozhkin and Rodionov are both attackers. Lozhkin, 18, has come of the bench twice this season with Rodionov an unused substitute 3 times this season. 

Anatoly Makarov, Alexander Dzhigero, Mutalip Alibekov, Dmitry Shchegrikovich and Arthur Gomelko have all agreed deals to stay with the club. 

Alexey Butarevich, Ilya Raschenya, Alexey Vakulich, Ivan Veras and Ivan Vasilenok have all departed the Ozyorny Stadium. 


It was rumoured the club were going to resign from the Premier League but the above news seems to counter this and they will continue which is fantastic news. 

The new look squad are due to play currently eighth placed Isloch this Friday afternoon with a 4.30pm UK kick off time. They have only two wins from their fifteen league games played so far but they have both come in the last five games played against Slutsk and Gorodeya.
