Since the beginning of this year, Mowchan, who was then 17 years old, has been training with the first team of FC Dinamo Minsk. During this time, he played 14 official matches, scoring two goals and providing two assists.
On August 13, the footballer turned 18. This season, he debuted in the Belarusian Premier League and also received a call-up to the country's youth national team. His statistics could have been even better, but Mowchan missed the last two months of the season due to injury.
According to insider Anar Ibragimov, Dinamo Zagreb will pay 110 thousand euros for the transfer of the Belarusian player.
Previously, Spanish club Levante was also interested in Mowchan. In December 2025, the Belarusian footballer underwent a trial and internship at this club. Other European teams also showed interest in the young midfielder.
In recent years, several young FC Dinamo Minsk footballers have moved to foreign clubs. Trafim Melnichenka, Uladzislau Marozau, and Mikita Demchanka went to play in Portugal — for Porto, Arouca, and Vizela, respectively. Fiodar Lapukhou ended up at CSKA Sofia, and Pavel Apiatsionak at Greek PAOK Thessaloniki.
