Biography: early years
Maxim Alexandrovich Belyaev was born on September 30, 1991 in the small town of Ozyory. It stands on the banks of the Oka River, 130 km from Moscow. Maxim has younger brothers and a sister. In the mid-nineties, his family did not live well. Parents were too young and had difficulty making ends meet. In an interview, Belyaev recalled that in childhood he had to starve.
After the birth of the third child, Maxim's parents decided to move from the Ozyory closer to Moscow. The family settled in Mytishchi. At that time, the living conditions of the Belyaevs were close to what is called poverty. Parents rented housing for the last money. A family of five huddled in a cramped odnushka on the outskirts of Mytishchi.
Parents lost work all day to feed their three children. My father went to a construction site, and my mother got a job as a barmaid. Maxim was left to his own devices. In an interview, he recalled that at that time books became his main hobby. He read them voraciously while his parents were at work. He even wrote books in which he shared his impressions of the read works. Maxim worked hard and worked on himself to become what he is now.
He got into sports thanks to his father. He once played football. He decided to realize his sports dreams in his eldest son. Father took six-year-old Maxim for viewing at the Spartak children’s school. Already at that time he was very textured for his age. Maxim passed the selection without any problems.
With eight years, Belyaev went to training alone. The school was in Sokolniki, and the family lived in Mytishchi. Maxim had to take an electric train to Moscow, and from there get there by tram. He whiled away while reading books. In order to save money, Belyaev walked on a train. The road went through a small forest, but this did not bother little Maxim, but only tempered his character.
At the school "Spartacus" he studied until 13 years old. After leaving her, he continued training at the Lokomotiv school, where he quickly became one of the most promising pupils.
Career
Maxim became a player in the youth team of Lokomotiv at the age of 16. Two years later, he made his debut in the Russian Premier League as a player in the base of the “railroad”. At the end of the first half, he replaced Dmitry Sennikov in the game against the Perm club Amkar. Then the meeting ended in a draw.
The coaches gave Maxim a chance to show himself, but later they decided to send him a rental, where he could gain experience, and not sit on the bench. So Belyaev got first in the Bryansk Dynamo, and then in the Vladimir Torpedo. Both clubs played in the FNL.

The next season, the breeders of the “railroad” followed Belyaev. It was on their recommendation that the then head coach - the Portuguese Jose Jose Couceiro - included Maxim in the winter training camp, which took place in the Portuguese city of Lagos. In an interview, Couceiro noted that Belyaev showed himself excellently at the training camp and he was pleased with his progress.
