Ararat-Armenia have announced the departure of two foreign players — defender João Queirós and midfielder Welton. Both players have left the club following the expiration of their contracts.
The departure of João Queirós can be considered the bigger loss for the Armenian champions. The 28-year-old Portuguese defender spent two seasons at Ararat-Armenia and was one of the team’s key players in the previous campaign. During his time at the club, Queirós made 68 appearances and scored 3 goals.
Welton spent one season with Ararat-Armenia. The Brazilian footballer played 24 matches and scored 1 goal.
Ararat-Armenia became Armenian champions last season and will play in the first qualifying round of the Champions League. Ahead of the start of their European campaign, the club continues to shape its squad for the new season.
