๐ฐ๐ฌKyrgyzstan will have a player in ๐ท๐บ@premierliga next season!. Gulzhigit Alykulovโs Torpedo Moscow were at risk of missing promotion due to off-field issues, but today the club confirmed:. โTorpedo officially received Certificate No. 74, confirming our membership in the RPL.โ
The fact there might not be a Kyrgyz player in the Russian premier league next season is disappointing. Gulzhigit Alykulov and his Torpedo Moscow club are under investigation and a director has been arrested for bribery of referees. Crazy scenes

๐ Update on Eldiyar Zarypbekov:. The Kyrgyz midfielder will sign with Novorossiysk's Chornomorets, pending a medical. After years at Chaika, this move can be seen as a step up, Chornomorets finished 3rd in the FNL last season and just missed out on promotion due to licensing.
๐ฐ๐ฌ๐ท๐บ Eldiyar Zarypbekov is set to move clubs soon!. A Chaika player since 2021, he's become a key figure, 29 apps this season. With the club on the verge of First League removal due to financial issues, exits are inevitable. He's likely to continue his football in Russia.
