The previous agreement with the club’s all-time record holder was expiring at the end of this season.

In four years, Sergei Volkov has come a long way with Akron: from the KFK Championship to the First League. Behind the goalkeeper 105 matches in all tournaments, of which 40 – without conceded goals, a huge number of bright saves and the title of the best goalkeeper of the FNL last season in terms of the number of saves made.

“Sergey has already symbolized Akron, having played for the club since its inception. On the field and in the locker room – this is one of the leaders. His contribution to the success of the team is obvious, as evidenced by the steady interest from the RPL clubs. We are pleased that we will continue to move towards new goals together,” said FC Akron Sports Director Aram Zadoyan.
