Baffour Gyan Leaves Dynamo

... As Struggling Dynamo Moscow transfer-list seven players

MOSCOW, Aug 24 -- Dynamo Moscow loaned Ghanaian international Baffour Gyan to premier league rivals Saturn Ramenskoye last week.

Meanwhile, seven first-team players were transfer-listed by the struggling Russian premier league club on Thursday.

The club said that Russia goalkeeper Sergei Ovchinnikov , Portuguese goalkeeper Nuno, Nigerian international Joseph Enakarhire, Brazilian defender Jorge, Senegalese fullback Pascal Mendi, former Ukraine defender Dmitry Parfyonov and ex-Russia striker Dmitry Bulykin were also deemed surplus to requirements.

Portugal midfield duo, Maniche and Costinha, along with Greece defender Yourkas Seitaridis left the Moscow club earlier this year.

"We're building a new team and must make tough choices. At present, I don't feel that these players will be able to help our team move forward," Dynamo caretaker coach Andrei Kobelev, who took over from former Russia manager Yuri Syomin three weeks ago, told the club's Web site.

Veteran goalkeeper Ovchinnikov, who has been Dynamo captain this season, received a five-match ban for physically threatening a referee in a league match earlier this month.

Ovchinnikov, Jorge and Parfyonov joined Dynamo at the start of the season while Nuno and Enakarhire were signed from Portuguese clubs Porto and Sporting in July 2005.

Dynamo are having one of their worst seasons ever, struggling both on and off the pitch despite flamboyant owner Alexei Fedorychev having spent more than $100 million on players since taking control almost two years ago.

Dynamo, the only Russian club never to be relegated, remain second from bottom with just two wins from 17 matches.
