Dmitri Osipenko

Osipenko was born in Minsk and made his senior debut there in 2000 with Traktor Minsk. A year later he moved to Locomotive Minsk, where he finished as top scorer of the Belarusian Second League with 24 goals and helped the club win the title. Spells at Smorgon and then FC Minsk followed; at the latter he stayed four seasons, scored 32 goals in 109 appearances, and won a bronze medal in the Belarusian Premier League in 2010.

That form earned him a move abroad in January 2011, to Vorskla Poltava in Ukraine on a two-year contract, but he made just 15 appearances there before losing his place and leaving within the year. He returned home in 2012 to join Shakhtyor Soligorsk, and his first season back was his best individually: he finished as the league's top scorer with 14 goals. Silver medals followed in 2012 and 2013, and he added the Belarusian Cup and a further bronze medal in 2014 before a brief second spell at the club in 2016.

The second half of his career took him through Granit Mikashevichi, Isloch, Luch Minsk and Kolos Chervyen, but it was at Arsenal Dzerzhinsk, where he played from 2019 to 2022, that he left his deepest mark: 121 matches and 43 goals made him the club's all-time record appearance holder. With Arsenal he won the Second League in 2019 and the First League in 2021. Osipenko was twice named among the 22 best players of the Belarusian championship, in 2012 and 2013, though the forward never won a cap for the national team.
