"I can say that it was a very good time for me. I like how I spent these six months at Rukh. It was very comfortable, I felt love and support. In general, it was great," Osuchukwu said.
"Today I am sad that I am leaving Rukh I will remember all the good moments that I had here. You know, every player always wants to get stronger. I think it's time for me to take a step forward.
"I want to thank everyone here for their love and support, both fans and players. This team will forever remain in my heart. Rukh has become my home."
Osuchukwu, 26, played eleven matches for Rukh Brest in the Belarusian top-flight and provided one assist.
