Léo Njengo is the only Belgian player playing in Belarus.
After Marvin Ogunjimi (two months spent at Dynamo Brest in 2018) and Danilo (from 2019 to 2020 at Dinamo Minsk), the Vysshaya Liga welcomes another Belgian this season. 26-year-old winger Léo Njengo arrived at Slavia Mozyr in early January to start a season that runs from March to November. “The pre-season preparation in January and February was the hardest of my life, says the player from Antwerp. For two months, we trained twice every day. Besides, it was in the middle of winter. One morning, I got up to go train and it was -26 degrees. When I was training I was completely frozen. I could barely move. Even my nostrils were frozen (laughs). “
