Russian footballer Kryuchkov Alexander

Kryuchkov Alexander is a Russian football player who is currently playing for the club "Kaluga". He is already 31 years old, so in a couple of years, most likely, he will complete his professional career. Kryuchkov Alexander stands in the position of the defensive midfielder, but can rise higher to the position of the central midfielder, and he can also play as a right-back.

Carier start

Kryuchkov Alexander was born on July 20, 1985 in the USSR, in the village of Dubrovka, located in the Tula region. He was not a great talent, he did not even practice football professionally, until in 2005, at the age of 20, he joined the Tula Arsenal. There he played 34 games, scoring five goals, which was an impressive start for him, but then he was in for an unpleasant surprise - the club was disbanded, so the young athlete had to look for a new job.

Career football player

So, in 2008 Kryuchkov Alexander joined Spartak from Shchyolkovo. There he played one season, going on the field 42 times and scoring six goals, after which he moved to "Istra", where he spent another successful season. The midfielder played 31 matches and scored six more goals, and in 2011 he moved to the Mostovik club. There he added to his account 34 more matches and two goals, and in 2012, when it was announced the resumption of work of the Tula Arsenal, Kryuchkov returned to his native club.

Returning to Arsenal and moving to Kaluga

In "Arsenal" Alexander Kryuchkov spent an excellent debut season, having played 21 matches and scoring 4 goals - he made a serious contribution to the club's victory in the Second Division. However, he was seriously injured, and when he recovered, he did not have a place in the base, and he was sent in a double. In the season 14/15 Kryuchkov won twenty games for Arsenal's second team, scoring two goals, but did not want to put up with this position, so he refused to renew the contract with the club. As a result, in the winter of 2016, he transferred to Kaluga as a free agent. There he spent so far for ten months and quickly became one of the key players in the team performing in one of the lower divisions. If we talk about high-level matches, Kryuchkov had three in the new team - in the second and third rounds of "Kaluga" won, and in the fourth one was defeated by "Tambov". Given the fact that Kryuchkov is already 31, he is unlikely to try to return to the higher leagues. In "Kaluga" he feels more than comfortable, so, most likely, he will finish his career in this club. Or he will return to Tula Arsenal to continue his work there after the end of his career.
