Timo Stavitski (Russian: Тимо Ставицкий, born 17 July 1999) is a Finnish professional footballer who plays as a winger for Allsvenskan club Mjällby.[1]

Club career

[edit]

Early career

[edit]

Born in Lahti and raised in Kirkkonummi, Stavitski played in the youth sectors of his hometown club Kyrkslätt Idrottsförening (KyIF) and HJK Helsinki, and made his senior debut with HJK's reserve team Klubi 04. He joined Veikkausliiga side Rovaniemen Palloseura (RoPS) in early 2017.[2][3] He scored his first professional goal in a 6–2 defeat by Inter Turku.[4]

Caen and loans

[edit]

In December 2017, after trialling with Barcelona, Stavitski joined French Ligue 1 side Caen,[5][6] for a €600,000 transfer fee.[7]

After spending chaotic six months on loan with NK Osijek, in January 2019, he went again on loan for RoPS.[8]

On 4 February 2019, Stavitski was loaned out to RoPS, where he played before in 2017, until mid July.[9] Stavitski had had a long-lasting pain in his groin for about six to seven months.[10] It resulted in a surgery in April 2019 and he would be out for the rest of the season. Stavitski returned to France to get treatment in Caen.[11]

In July 2020, Stavitski joined Dutch Eerste Divisie club MVV Maastricht on a one-season loan deal, but suffered from a knee injury during his loan.[12]

On 7 January 2022, his contract with Caen was terminated by mutual consent.[13]

Later in 2022, Stavitski spent time with Norwegian Eliteserien club Sarpsborg on trial, but the deal was collapsed due to injury.

Inter Turku

[edit]

Due to consecutive injuries, Stavitski had already ended his career.[14] However, he returned to Finland for the 2023 season and signed with Inter Turku on a one-year deal with an option to extend.[15] On 4 February 2023, Stavitski made his first competitive appearance in over two years, helping Inter to take a 1–0 win in a Finnish League Cup match against IFK Mariehamn.

On 17 August 2023, his contract with Inter was extended for the 2024 season, with an option for 2025.[16] The option was exercised in August 2024.[17]

During his one-and-a-half seasons with Inter, Stavitski made a total of 62 official appearances, scoring 12 goals and providing 11 assists.

Mjällby

[edit]

On 22 August 2024, Stavitski signed with Allsvenskan club Mjällby AIF on a four-and-a-half-year deal for an undisclosed fee.[18] Four days later, he debuted in Allsvenskan for his new club, scoring a winning goal and providing an assist in a 2–1 away win against IFK Norrköping.[19]

International career

[edit]

Stavitski has represented Finland at under-17, under-18, under-19 and under-21 youth national team levels.

Personal life

[edit]

Stavitski is of Russian and Ingrian Finnish descent, and he is bilingual, speaking both Finnish and Russian.[20][21]
