The contract with FC BATE was signed by a 30-year-old defender Ruslan Khadarkevich.
In the spring of 2017, Ruslan made his debut in the Major League - to FC Slaviya, at the helm of which was the first head coach of FC BATE Yuriy Puntus. True, in that season, the Mozyrs did not stay in the elite. Together with the Poleshuks, Khadarkevich also went to the first league to return the place under the sun. Slavia returned to high society, and after six months of performances, a qualitative leap took place in the footballer's career - he received an invitation from one of the leaders of Belarusian football, FC Shakhtyor (summer 2019). Together with the miners (he spent three and a half years in their composition), he first became a bronze medalist (2019), and in 2020 and 2021 - the national champion.
Playing for Shakhtyor, Ruslan received a baptism of fire in the international arena. In European competition, he has experience playing in all three tournaments - the Champions League, the Europa League and the Conference League. Since 2021, he has been defending the colors of the national team of Belarus.
In 2023, Khadarkevich moved to the capital Dinamo, but in the middle of the season he parted ways with Minsk and signed a contract with our club.
Welcome to FC BATE, Ruslan!
