FK Tukums continues to bolster its roster, announcing the signings of two young talents, Gļebs Kačanovs and Daniils Putrāns.
The 20-year-old left-back, Gļebs Kačanovs, is a product of the AFA Olaine academy. Before the 2022 season, he joined the Riga FC reserve team, where he played two full seasons in the Nākotnes Līga. He then moved to FS Jelgava, making 21 appearances in the Latvian Virslīga last year. Kačanovs’ consistent performances earned him a call-up to the Latvian U21 national team.
At 19 years old, Daniils Putrāns is a dynamic winger who started his career at the FK Dinamo Rīga academy. He later spent a year at the JFC Riga/Skonto Academy before moving to the Riga FC system.
Last season, Putrāns played 25 matches in the Nākotnes Līga, scoring three goals while captaining his team. On August 31, he made his Virslīga debut, playing 14 minutes against Grobiņa. Like Kačanovs, Putrāns has been called up to the Latvian U21 national team.
