Maksym Talovierov signs for Argyle
Ukrainian international Maksym Talovierov has signed for Argyle for a record fee on a three-and-a-half-year contract.
The central defender joins from Austrian club LASK and has also played for Slavia Prague, Slovan Liberec and Dynamo Ceske Budejovice, among others.
Aged just 24, Talovierov made his international debut for Ukraine in 2024 and has since gone on to make seven appearances for his country.
Argyle Head Coach Miron Muslic is delighted to bring him to the club, commenting: “I have been open since I joined Argyle that we would be patient to bring in the right players who could help the team.
“In Maksym we feel we have done just that as he is a commanding presence who will add height and physicality to the side, but he is also good on the ball and technically good.
“Most importantly, he is a good defender and will strengthen our options in the defensive department of the squad. I am really pleased to bring him to the club and look forward to working with him.”
Argyle Head of Recruitment, Jimmy Dickinson, added: “Maksym is someone we have been aware of and followed closely for a while.
“We have had to be patient to bring him to the club as he has had a lot of interest but he comes to Argyle ready to face the challenge, head on.
“He joins us with international and European pedigree having represented Ukraine and fits all the attributes both the recruitment team and Miron were looking for.
“I look forward to seeing him in the green of Argyle soon.”
Maksym will wear the number 40, and will be available for selection for this weekend’s game against West Bromwich Albion, subject to EFL approval and international clearance.
