“Ural” releases the captain: Begich leaves the club after receiving his salary and due to the lack of opportunities for young players. Begich leaves Ural: The club decided not to renew his contract with this almost 33-year-old Croatian player. (Date: June 3rd; reason: lack of a Russian passport.) There are two reasons for this decision: the management wants to rejuvenate the team’s players, and Sylvio is too expensive for Ural’s re-entry into the Russian Premier League. His salary exceeds 3.5 million rubles per month. Begich isn’t a legend, but he’s definitely a key figure in Ural’s history. He played 120 matches for the club and was the captain of the team. Firstly, this 197-centimeter center-back is remembered for his ability to create threats in the opponent’s penalty area. He scored 12 goals for the club. His most memorable performances were during the matches against Akron. It was Sylvio who gave the team hope of survival. In the FNL, he became one of the best defenders. Last season, Begich won over 80% of his fights. In the next season, it’s likely that the newly reorganized Ekaterinburg will be missing this giant player.
