Young striker from Kazakhstan is compared with Aguero
Chelsea and Kairat finally agreed on the transfer of 16-year-old striker Dastan Satpaev. Earlier it was reported that the British will pay 2+1.6 million pounds, and the contract with the player will be 5 years. In December, Satpaev came to watch at Chelsea, after which the club took the time to think. Then the Kazakhstani media wrote this way: “Regarding the trip to Chelsea, Satpaev made a good impression, but at the level of one of the best academies of the world did not cause a super -effect. At the same time, he remains on the scout lists of Chelsea. In January, it became known that Satpaev will nevertheless move to Chelsea-the club sees it only in the youth team. But until the age of 18, the striker will remain in Kairat due to FIFA restrictions on the transfer of minor football players (he will be able to play for Chelsea since the summer of 2026). Satpaev entered the Youth Academy of Kairat at eight years and will continue to develop in his native club, waiting for adulthood.Fckairat.com, last season, Satpaev showed himself perfectly in QJ League (Kazakhstan's youth League): scored 19 goals and gave seven assists, receiving the prize to the most useful player of the tournament. In the Youth League of UEFA (U-19), the striker 1+1 for 4 matches, he also played for the youth team of Kazakhstan (U-17). In May, Satpaev was the basis of Kairat, becoming the youngest football player in the history of the club, who played for the main team (15 years and 9 months). Satpaev attracted the attention of European scouts, who already compare him with the legend of Manchester City Sergio Aguero. “The style of the game of Dastan Satpaeva causes certain aspects of the game Sergio Aguero in memory. In particular, the acute instincts of Dastan in front of the gate and its ability to realize moments by combining strength and grace resemble the deadly completion of Aguero’s attacks, ”the RCSCOUTAING portal reports. Computations with Aguero – just look at the Satpaev’s autumn goal. With a score 3: 3, he brought his team forward, rushing into a solo pass.

Cherchesov defended Satpayev from star disease
Scouts report that Satpaev is a technical striker: with a low center of gravity, smooth movements and tactical training – he correctly chooses a position and opens in free zones. Satpaev is low (170 cm), so he rarely clogs his head, but can play on the attack flank, because he has perfectly owned with both legs. Satpaev plays well under pressure, risks and goes into dribbling, but most importantly – it matures without a ball. Competent movements on the field increase his chances to play at an adult level-he is a tactically trained player, and not a ruler, which are lost at an adult level.
Fckairat.comatoks, Kazakhstanis, is noted by the mental maturity of Satpayev, who always strove to Europe. Having received in May the award of the best player in the season at QJ League, he said: “I am very glad that he received this award. The most important thing is that my team achieved the goal – we won the tournament, became champions. This was my main personal goal to help the team win QJ League. I want to devote my victory in the MVP nomination of the season to my parents, team, coaches, everyone who supported me. My next goal and dream, of course, to play at the European level. “Kazakhstan media reported that Satpaev was interested in Russia – in particular, Zenit, who has close relations with Kairat. Satpaev showed himself perfectly at the Dmitry Besov Cup in St. Petersburg, receiving a prize of the best striker tournament. Therefore, the insiders suggested that the striker could follow Nuraly Alip – a young Kazakhstani who turned from Kairat to Zenit.
Fckairat.com is admired by Satpaev – they nicknamed the child prodigy and read a great future. Many are sure that this is the most talented football football player. But the former national team coach Stanislav Cherchesov referred to a 16-year-old football player with a share of skepticism: “Do I know about this player? We know about everyone. And I'm afraid of the child prodigy. When such a characteristic is given to the young football player, this is the first step to the fact that he will disappear. I call it “abilities.” There are abilities. Now God forbid him to develop. Just for every young player, this acts differently. This is such a moment, you know … If he is ready and correctly assesses the situation, then he will grow. If he is lost … and what did they say to Chelsea? “
