Carier start

Igor Lebedenko was born on May 27, 1983 in the Russian capital - Moscow. There he began to play football, as a result of being in the academy of the Moscow "Torpedo". Passed through the youth squads of the club, in 2001 he received a professional contract, but he could not immediately get into the main line-up. From 2000 to 2002, he played for the club's double, only periodically receiving invitations to the main team, and only since 2002 began to speak for the club on a permanent basis. For two years he spent 73 matches, scoring 17 goals - then Igor Lebedenko still acted as the central striker on an ongoing basis. As a result, he drew the attention of another Moscow club, "Lokomotiv", where he moved in the winter of 2005.

Going to Lokomotiv

Igor Lebedenko is a football player who was ready to fight for the place in the team until the last, but it was extremely difficult to do it in Lokomotiv. For the year he went on the field only 23 times, scoring six goals, and when the club changed the coach - decided to leave. He was sold to "Saturn" for 600 thousand euros - then he was at the peak of his career and did not want to sit all the time on the bench.

The game for "Saturn"

In "Saturn" Lebedenko spent two and a half years, but still did not become a key player, and his career has already declined. For all this time he came on the field only 57 times, scoring seven goals. Naturally, this did not suit him very much, however, those who wanted to acquire the player were not observed, so he had to wait until the end of the contract to move as a free agent to Rostov.

Speeches for "Rostov"

Lebedenko in "Rostov" was able to regain his form and play at a good level, after two years of 59 games and scoring six goals. When his contract came to an end, he went on to increase, joining the Kazan "Ruby".

Last years

In "Ruby" the player spent only one year, playing 22 games and scoring two goals. He quickly realized that this was not his level and that he needed to find a club in which he could play on an ongoing basis. This club was "Terek", with which he signed a contract back in 2012. Since then, he played for the club 130 matches, scoring 18 goals.
