Alyaksandr Martynovich, born on 26 August 1987 (age 39), is a Belarusian central defender, now with Kairat. At 6ft 4in (1.93m), he has the obvious frame for the role, and his career has largely been built around durability rather than ornament.
His early years included loan football, the sort of practical schooling that can matter more for a defender than a neat development pathway on paper. Those spells helped carry him towards the long run that would come to shape his career far more clearly than the stops either side of it.
That run came at Krasnodar. Across 10 seasons there, Martynovich made 197 league appearances and scored five league goals, giving the Russian club the central place in his senior career. It was not a brief peak or a passing association, but the spell that gave his career its substance.
He later had his most productive league campaign in front of goal at Rubin Kazan in 2023-24, scoring three times in 20 appearances. By 2026 he was with Kairat, where he had played once in Europa League qualifying, four times in Champions League qualifying and twice in the Conference League.
Martynovichโs career has been that of a tall, experienced Belarusian centre-half whose longest and most meaningful spell came at Krasnodar, with later chapters at Rubin Kazan and Kairat adding to a solid senior record.
