Loan spells
The 26-year-old twins have joined on loan from FC Dynamo Kyiv until the end of the year. The brothers joined Dynamo in 1998 but failed to hold down regular first-team places and have since been sent out on loan to a variety of clubs, most recently CSKA Kyiv in the Ukrainian second division.
Path back
Their path back to Dinamo was eased by the return there of coach Anatoli Baydachny, who led the club to their last title win in 1997, with the Makovski brothers in his team. Forward Vladimir has 26 caps for Belarus and has scored four goals while midfield player Mikhail has been capped once.
Four wins in a row
Following a run of four consecutive wins, Dinamo are third in the Premier League standings with 19 points from ten games. They face Brøndby on 14 and 28 August.
