The team Zhetysu Taldykorgan, which includes Moldova’s Stefan Burghiu and Oleg Hromtsov, managed to enter the highest football league of the Kazakh football.

Zhetysu obtained this right five stages before the end of the competition, being ten points ahead of Kyzyl-Zhar. “I’m glad that we achieved the objective. I adjusted myself swiftly in Kazakhstan because the level is similar to the National Division,” fullback Stefan Burghiu has told IPN.

Igor Bugaiov also plays in the Premier League of Kazakhstan. He signed for the fourth-ranked Irtysh Pavlodar.
