Ilya Shkurin

Ilya Shkurin is a forward who attacks space and runs beyond the line, using his frame to pin centre-backs while finishing moves in the box. He quickly seized early career attention. He then moved in 2020 to CSKA Moscow, establishing himself as a target forward who holds the ball under pressure. Ilya Shkurin later starred for Stal Mielec in 2023–2024, scoring 16 league goals and elevating his profile through clinical finishes inside the area. In 2025 he transferred to Legia Warsaw before joining GKS Katowice, continuing as a forward who links play with one-touch layoffs and times runs behind defences. He stays high to press and disrupt, applying physical leverage to force turnovers from the front. Ilya Shkurin finishes moves by getting shots off quickly and attacking the back post with precise timing.
