"Amkar" - Russian football a new club from Perm, founded on December 6, 1994. One of the youngest teams in our country in the twenty-year history of its existence has established itself as very strong and combative, regardless of the composition of the team. The highest achievement of the club was getting into the final of the Russian Cup in 1995 and 4th place in the RFPL in the 2008 season.

History of FC "Amkar"

The path to the Premier League for the “red-blacks” turned out to be quite long, but it was not worth expecting anything else - the team from the mineral fertilizers enterprise did not have huge financial resources. Therefore, they gradually got over at the expense of their pupils, the most famous of whom are Konstantin Zyryanov and Konstantin Paramonov. Five years after its creation, the team managed to reach the First Division, where in the entire history of its performance it did not fall below the sixth place, and in 2003 Amkar won the right to participate in the Premier League. And a year before that, Perm for the first time in their history reached the cup semifinals.

During the ten years spent in the top echelon, Amkar only rose above the tenth place twice - in 2008 (4th place) and 2009. In the same 2008, the team reached the Russian Cup final for the first time, where it played against CSKA 2-0, but then missed a penalty shoot-out victory. The “ammonia” players managed to play in the Europa League, albeit not for long - in the playoffs, they were defeated by Fulham on aggregate. Which might not have been if the Permians were a little more fortunate ... And one cannot fail to note the fact that the Bulgarian legionnaires played a very important role in the success: Martin Kushev, Georgi Peev, Zakhari Sirakov. And even now the club is a kind of haven for football players from this Balkan country, the so-called already beaten track.

With modest financial resources, Amkar has prospects with very competent coaches who know how to work with limited resources. These include Miodrag Bozovic and Stanislav Cherchesov. But why not give a chance to the real legend of the club - Konstantin Paramonov? The man went with "Amkar" the way from the bottom to the European Cup zone, and earned a credit of trust. Better yet, at the end of the season, after the coach's sudden departure, it was impossible to perform.

In the 2014/15 season, Amkar started the tournament very badly, and was on the verge of being relegated to the FNL. In December 2014, Gadzhi Gadzhiev became the new head coach of the team, who was able to raise the team to 11th place in the Russian championship and was able to maintain a residence permit in the RFPL, despite a disgusting start.

The management of the Perm club decided to conclude a long-term contract with the specialist. For the next two seasons, Hajiyev successfully coped with the main task and kept his registration in the Premier League for Amkar.

After the first half of the 2017/18 season, Amkar is in 13th place and in the transition zone.

Story

“Amkar” is one of the clearest examples of the evolution of a football club in the newest Russian history... In a short sixteen years by club standards, the Permians have made their way from a physical education team to a member of the Europa League, never taking a step back, if we take into account not a place in standings, and transitions from one division to another, a change in the team's status at the end of the season. Having beaten on May 8, 1993 in the match for the Perm Cup a team of military students from the Perm Higher Military Command Engineering School (6: 1), football team Joint Stock Company "Mineral Fertilizers" thereby announced its birth. A year later, "Amkar" - and the name of the team was invented by a physical culture activist of the enterprise, successfully adding parts of the names of two substances that are the main products of the plant (ammonia and urea) - won the Cup and Championship of the Perm Region and received a professional status. A year later, the Permians made their way to the second league, and in 1999 they became members of the first division.

Having played five years in the country's second most important division and never dropped below sixth in it, the Permians won the right to play in the Premier League - and in the fifth year of their stay there they performed a small miracle. The provincial team with modest capabilities took fourth place, ahead of Zenit, Lokomotiv, Spartak. Successes in the domestic championship allowed the Perm team to make their debut in Europe next year. Defeat the London “Fulham” on aggregate failed, but the very fact of the “red-black” in the European arena is worth a lot. By the way, the Urals owe their flowers not to anyone, but to Milan itself - a uniform close to that of the Rossoneri, the Italian partners of the founding company of the team suggested at one time to the Permians.

2009 was generally not the most successful year for the Permians. If in the first two seasons of his stay in the elite it was naive to demand great success from the team under the leadership of Sergei Oborin (who led the Permians for eleven years and made the whole difficult path from the third division to the highest with the team), then, having settled down among the best, the Permians under leadership, first by Rashid Rakhimov, and then by Miodrag Bozovic, invariably progressed. Thirteenth place, then eighth, fourth ... The already forgotten thirteenth line in the standings of the 2009 season is a rollback to previous positions, but it is also an opportunity to look at yourself from the outside. A chance to evaluate their successes in recent years and understand whether the team has climbed too high, jumping somewhere, perhaps over a step in its development.

The fourth place in the 2008 championship is the main, but not the only, success of the Permians. The team played twice in the semifinals and once in the final of the Russian Cup, in 2003 the Urals team with incredible tournament performance became the winners of the first division. “Amkar” can boast of its own pupil in the Russian national team - Perm Konstantin Zyryanov received his football education in this very club. Zyryanov, however, is not the record holder for the number of games for the “red-blacks”: Alexei Popov, who played for the Urals by the time of his departure to “Rubin” in 404 official matches, entered his name in the history of Perm football forever.

After Sergei Oborin left, a real coaching leapfrog began. From 2006 to 2013, the club changed seven coaches: Igor Uralev, Rashid Rakhimov, Miodrag Bozhovich, Dimitar Dimitrov, Nikolay Trubachev, Rustem Khuzin and Stanislav Cherchesov. Moreover, Rakhimov and Bozhovich came to Amkar twice, but each time their stay was short-lived. The saddest thing for the fans of the Perm team is that despite all the coaching changes, the club's results left much to be desired. After the outbreak of 2008, Amkar's best result was tenth in the 2011/12 season.

Instead of sports - a financial principle

In Russia, at the height of the 2018 World Cup, the Premier League club was buried - Perm "Amkar"

From the site of FC "Amkar"

Russian football lost today, June 18, the famous Ural club "Amkar". The team from Perm ceased to exist due to lack of funding. This news passed unnoticed against the backdrop of the gathering pace of the World Cup. There are no messages about the liquidation of the club on the websites of the Russian Football Union (RFU) and the Russian Football Premier League (RFPL). But in football circles, many expressed their sincere regrets about this, noting that while Russia is trying to impress the West with the World Cup, football is dying inside the country.

"Strong middling"

By the standards of Russian grandees Amkar is a young team. The Perm Club was founded in 1994 in Russian Premier League(top club division) played from 2004 to 2018. The best result the Permian team became the fourth in the 2007/08 season. At the same time, Amkar, under the leadership of Miodrag Bozovic, reached the final of the Russian Cup, where they lost to CSKA on penalties. “Amkar” has always been considered a “strong middle peasant” and could beat the leaders of the championship race.

But at the beginning of 2018, Amkar began to experience financial difficulties, the team's performance in the Premier League was questioned. V last season the club took 13th place and was forced to play in transitional matches with the Tambov club for the right to remain in the RFPL.

Permians have retained their residence in the elite. However, on June 13, it became known that the RFU revoked Amkar's license for the 2018-2019 season due to insufficient financial guarantees. Thus, the club lost the opportunity to play in the Premier League and the National Football League (FNL), which unites the clubs of the first division.

Today, 18 June, the board of FC "Amkar" gathered. After the meeting, it was announced that the club would cease to exist. Amkar President Gennady Shilov said that the team will not even enter the Professional Football League (follows the FNL - ed.). According to Shilov, there is no funding, and it makes no sense to accumulate debts. It is expected that the place of "Amkar" in the RFPL will be taken by Makhachkala "Anji".

Budget cuts

Sports media note that everything was systematically going towards the liquidation of the Perm club. The scenario was similar to how the Tosno club was dying. The team from the Leningrad region won the Russian Cup this year, after which it was disbanded for the same financial reasons.

It is reported that when the authorities of the Perm Territory reduced the amount of state support to Amkar in 2018, the team began to experience financial difficulties. Before that, about half of the club's budget was made up of budget subsidies. In addition, sponsors turned their backs on the team, and therefore Amkar barely finished the season.

According to the newspaper "Sport-Express", the management of "Amkar" received offers from investors from Nizhny Novgorod and Kaliningrad to buy the club for 150 million rubles. But the deal did not materialize. According to some reports, Shilov intended to receive 180 million rubles, as well as guarantees to repay the club's debts, which, according to various estimates, range from 200 to 500 million rubles.

Now the club has to pay, including salary arrears. So, "Amkar" owes Nigeria's national team player Brian Idov a salary for three months and bonuses for five games, writes "R-Sport". The footballer noted that the situation with the club distracts him from the World Cup, while he feels sorry for the fans from Perm.

The club was "buried"

Many former players of the club expressed regret regarding the situation with Amkar, including ex-goalkeepers Roman Gerus and Alexander Selizov. Currently active players are looking for new teams. This, in particular, said the captain of "Amkar" Petar Zanev.

Another former Amkar player, and now the manager of the revived Zvezda, Alexei Popov, told RIA Novosti that the liquidation of the Perm team is a sore point for him. “I gave this club 20 years. The team was buried. I said that the club has been heading towards collapse for the last 5-10 years. In the end, it all happened. As far as I know, the management wanted to keep the team, but Shilov does not make any contact. It is a pity that it turns out that way, ”he said.

Even his most implacable rival - FC Ural from Yekaterinburg - spoke about the liquidation of Amkar. The teams are connected by a 21-year history of confrontations, and each match was positioned as an Ural derby, which aroused increased interest among fans.

“Every person close to Ural football knows about the uneasy relationship of the Ural and Amkar fans to each other, but today, at least for a day, we urge all fans to forget about it. The Perm club was our closest neighbor in the matches of the Russian championship and, traditionally, the guest sector at the Zvezda stadium was filled to capacity with fans from Yekaterinburg. Football club“Ural” sincerely regrets that “Amkar” is no more ... It's hard to believe so far, but we hope that Perm will return to the football map of Russia, ”the Ural press service said on its Facebook page.

Instead of football - basketball

Gennady Sandyrev, co-chairman of the regional headquarters of the All-Russia People's Front in the Perm Territory, believes that the current financial troubles of the club are based on the conflict between the top management of Amkar and the regional authorities. “Now the situation is quite negative. The club, which had been operating for more than 20 years, ceased to exist. And this does not at all agree with the decree of the President of Russia that in the regions it is necessary to develop sports, educate the younger generation and pay special attention to sports of the highest achievements, '' he notes. - In general, Amkar's budget was one of the smallest in the Premier League. That is why it is doubly surprising that the leadership of the region and the club could not come to an agreement, work out some steps to normalize the situation. "

According to the estimates of the newspaper "Kommersant", in the past years about 400 million rubles were allocated from the budget of the region to "Amkar". per year, plus the government negotiated with energy companies to help the club in the amount of 160 million rubles. The rest of the club earned money from transfers, as well as from income from TV broadcasts.

In September 2017, the governor Viktor Basargin was replaced by Maxim Reshetnikov, and this year only 201 million rubles were allocated from the budget of the Amkar region. The Perm media suggest that the new governor's other hobbies are to blame. Maxim Reshetnikov, according to rumors and some facts, likes basketball more. Coincidence or not, the financing of the basketball Parma in Perm is now solid and stable, the club knows no problems.

Instead of sports - a financial principle

Vice President and Chairman of the Board of Directors of FC Ural, Alexander Levin, in a conversation with a Znak.com correspondent, named another reason why Amkar was destined to leave the RFPL. According to him, the Premier League, instead of the sports principle of the selection of participating teams, puts the financial principle in the foreground. And today, to obtain a license to participate in the RPFL, huge funds are required. And therefore, from the FNL, no one is in a hurry to the top division.

“And why, if you have to spend on the season, roughly speaking, instead of 100 thousand billion? And then, in addition to financial guarantees, we need guarantees in terms of infrastructure. Not everyone can do this today, ”he noted. - But, of course, the liquidation of Amkar is just shocking news, it is a very serious loss. It was known about financial difficulties, but no one expected that everything would end like this. If the state does not support our clubs now, until Russian football reaches the European level, we will lose teams. "

According to Kommersant's information, the management of Amkar is now considering options for closing the club - through bankruptcy or through voluntary liquidation, declaring its intention to settle accounts with all the players. The only positive moment is that the Amkar Young Football Players Training Center, which trains over 700 young Perm citizens, will continue its work. The center will be transferred under the leadership of Perm officials from the regional administration of the same name.

The 2004 Champions League final, held in Gelsenkirkhin, is one of the most memorable for Russian fans, as one of the goals was scored by Dmitry Alenichev.

The 2005 Istanbul Champions League final is arguably the greatest in tournament history.

The home arena of one of the most successful clubs in modern football has hosted the Champions League final only once - in the 2009/10 season, but this so far only match has gone down in history.

In the Madrid final, Inter and Bayern Munich met. The match ended 2-0 in favor of the Italian club, and Jose Mourinho, who was working with the Nerazzurri at that time, became the third coach in history who managed to win the Champions Cup with two different teams (now there are five of them: in addition to the Portuguese Ernst Happel, Ottmar Hitzfeld, Jupp Heynckes and Carlo Ancelotti).

Wembley (London, England). Opened in 2007. Accommodates 90,000 spectators.

The new Wembley is built on the site of the legendary arena that hosted the matches of the World and European Championships, Olympic Games and many European finals.

Allianz Arena (Munich, Germany). Opened in 2005. Accommodates 67,812 spectators.

The account was opened only in the 83rd minute after hitting the hosts striker Thomas Muller, but five minutes later the leader of the attacks of Londoners Didier Drogba restored the balance.

The fate of the trophy was decided in a penalty shootout. “Bayern” again took the lead after a precise shot by Philip Lam and a miss by Juan Mata, but then the players of the guests realized all their attempts, while the players of the German team made two misfires. Thus, Chelsea won the Champions League for the first time in their history.

Millennium (Cardiff, Wales). Opened in 1999. Accommodates 73 930 spectators.

The home arena of the Wales national team was opened at the turn of the millennium, having received the corresponding name, but in 2016 the stadium received a new name - Principality Stadium, which, with a certain amount of imagination, can simply be translated as "Princely Stadium", since Wales is part of the United Kingdom, and the Queen's son Elizabeth II Charles bears the title of Prince of Wales.

But back to the Champions League. The final of the main club tournament in Europe took place here in 2017, with Real Madrid and Juventus participating in that match. Madrid won 4: 1 and won the second Champions League title in a row, and football fans will remember that meeting with the super goal of the Turin striker Mario Mandzhukic.

Metropolitano (Madrid, Spain). Opened in 1994. Renovated in 2017. Accommodates 67,700 spectators.

Liverpool and Tottenham met in the 2019 Champions League final. The final was the first in history for Tottenham and the first since the final in 2013, where at least one Spanish club did not play. Liverpool, reaching the final for the second time in a row, won the match 2-0. In his third Champions League final, Jurgen Klopp won the trophy as head coach.

“Amkar” in the championship of Russia-2017/18 took 13th place, and in play-offs won for the right to participate in the elite (2: 0, 1: 0). The Perm club did not receive a license on the first try, then filed an appeal, which was upheld. At the same time, the licensing department of the RFU set a condition for the club to provide financial guarantees by June 8. Amkar did not have them. And as a result, the license was revoked.

This also applies to FNL, - explained to "SE" the head of the licensing department of the RFU Evgeny Letin... - In the PFL, “Amkar” has the opportunity to go through a freelance licensing procedure. Everything will now depend on the club.

According to Letin, the deadline for Amkar to apply for a license to participate in the PFL championship is Thursday. That is, if tomorrow, on the opening day of the football championship, the Perm club does not submit an application, it will automatically lose its professional status.

As the columnist for "SE" Sergei EGOROV previously reported, the management of "Amkar" received an offer from investors from Nizhny Novgorod and Kaliningrad to buy the club for 150 million rubles. However, the deal did not materialize. According to some reports, the owner of "Amkar" Gennady Shilov intended to receive 180 million rubles, as well as guarantees to repay the club's debts, which amount to about 200 million rubles.

On the official site of “Amkar” shortly after the decision of the RFU, a statement appeared, which said that on Monday, June 18, the club board would meet - “to analyze the situation and make a decision on the advisability of continuing the club's activities”.

“If a decision is made to terminate the activity, the issue will be brought up to the general meeting of the organization's members,” the statement says. “The Amkar Young Football Players Training Center, which trains more than 700 young Perm citizens, will continue its activities. An agreement in principle has been reached with the Perm Krai government on the preservation of the Center. The CPMF will be transferred to the jurisdiction of the Regional institution for the training of young football players. Coaches and students will be provided with everything necessary for the training process at the expense of the budget of the Perm Territory. "

"ANZHI" SUBMIT DOCUMENTS FOR PARTICIPATION IN THE PREMIER LEAGUE

Apparently, the place of “Amkar” in the Premier League will be taken by the one that flew to the FNL. The Makhachkala team took the 14th place in the 2017/18 Russian championship, and lost to the Krasnoyarsk team in the play-offs (0: 3, 4: 3). Now “Anji” is preparing documents in order to replace Perm in the Premier League.

- “Anji” is ready to play in the Premier League, - said “SE” the general director of the Dagestan club Oleg Flegontov... - We have now contacted the leadership of the Premier League, clarified what documents we need to submit in order to re-enter the Premier League. Now we are preparing the papers.

- Do “Anji” have financial guarantees for the season in the Premier League?

We have already passed licensing to participate in the RFPL. I understand that our financial guarantees were arranged by the licensing committee.

As for the Permian football, it is planned to recreate the Zvezda club, founded in 1932. The new team in the 2018/19 season can become a member of the PFL championship.

"IF THERE ARE GUILTY, WE WILL NEVER RECOGNIZE THEM"

The situation in which was “Amkar”, commented on the team's midfielder.

- What did the club's management tell you?

A couple of days ago, the players received SMS on their phones that the club would be closed on June 13. So for us today's news did not come as a surprise. In principle, everyone already understood that everything would end like this, there was little chance of salvation, - said the 29-year-old midfielder in an interview with SE.

- Are you going to pay off debts to you?

As far as I know, the president of the club said that all employees and players are looking for a new job, and he will deal with debts. Well, let's see what happens.

- Don't you really believe him?

It's hard to believe, of course. On the other hand, over the years of its existence, “Amkar” still returned the money to everyone.

- “Amkar” officially closed the day before the start of the World Cup. Is there a sad symbolism in this?

I don’t even know. We thought that the home championship would somehow help. That people don't want to just bury the team. But ... It didn't work. Nothing. Now "Zvezda" will enter the PFL. In general, maybe they should wait a couple of years and not show up?

- Many people think that clubs are closing because the players' salaries are too high.

Amkar pays less than the rest of the Premier League teams. But if salaries were very low, no one would go to play this team. Those who say that we have too high incomes probably think that football is too easy thing. But playing it is not so easy as it seems from the outside. This is nifiga wrong!

And the football player's age is short. On the other hand, it is difficult to disagree with the fact that our people do not live very well. And the clubs are allocated money from the budgets ... I cannot say that this is the right way. In general, this topic can be discussed for a very long time.

- Who is to blame for the closure of “Amkar”?

It's hard for me to say. I think if there are any guilty ones, we will never know about them.
