Market

Diego Peralta puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Livorno, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad

Valerio Aureli is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 19 he is doing things at this level he could not do at the start of the season, and the coaching staff will tell you exactly which of them.

Boardroom

Window shuts: 16 in, 10 out at Livorno

The deadline has passed and the squad is the squad. 16 arrived, 10 left, and everything else printed about this club last month was a rumour that stayed one.

Squad

Words exchanged at Livorno

Frédéric Veseli and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Transfer targets

Livorno make their move for Isaac Prado

$48.0K on the table at Giugliano. The manager wanted him, the board agreed a number, and the only voices still to be heard are the ones at the other club.

Transfer targets

Livorno rebuffed over Fausto Salicioni

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Virtus Entella have kept their man, and Livorno go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Squad

Words at Livorno training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Moses Odjer is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Squad

9 new faces, and Livorno are still learning each other

A squad rebuilt inside one window pays for it in a currency nobody budgets for. The football is not worse than the sum of the players; it is worse than the sum of the players who have played together before.

Market

A long bet from Livorno on Magnus Hermansen

He is 18, and nobody at Livorno signed him for this season. Deals like this are judged in four years, by people who may not still be in the building.

Market

Lorenzo Malagrida asks to leave Livorno

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Market

Only the photograph left for Filippo Tani

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Filippo Tani will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Livorno the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Squad

Miguel Ángel Martínez signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Miguel Ángel Martínez commits to Livorno for another 2 years.

Transfer targets

Door shut on Luca Pandolfi

Livorno asked and Avellino said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Market

Still no ink between Livorno and Diego Peralta

“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at Livorno, another week without a signature from Diego Peralta.

Squad

Livorno are still strangers to each other

10 new signings in one window. Every one may be an upgrade and the side can still be worse for a while, which is the part of a rebuild the verdicts never mention.

The dugout

No hiding place for Moses Odjer

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Moses Odjer, and the manager let it.

Market

The clock runs on Miguel Ángel Martínez's contract

24 months left and silence from upstairs — no offer, no talks, nothing for his people to answer. Clubs that let a calendar do their negotiating usually end up negotiating with the calendar.

The dugout

Miguel Ángel Martínez knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Livorno, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Market

Filippo Tani hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Livorno can pretend not to have heard.

Transfer targets

Andrea Santarcangelo due for a Livorno medical

Everything agreed with Casarano, everything agreed with the player; a doctor is the only person left to persuade. The photograph is a day or two away.

Transfer targets

Door shut on Arman Durmiši

Livorno asked and Juventus said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Market

Carrarese join the queue for Riccardo Capparella

Add another name to the list: Carrarese have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Riccardo Capparella. The answer from Livorno has not changed — yet.

Squad

Words exchanged at Livorno

Matteo Bachini and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Transfer targets

Livorno ask about Matteo Cichella

A loan enquiry to Frosinone: cover, or a look at somebody the club cannot afford to buy yet. Either way the answer will come back inside the week.

The dugout

No hiding place for Leon Baldi

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Leon Baldi, and the manager let it.

The dugout

When it matters, Giacomo Gabbiani plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

The dugout

Diego Peralta knocks on the manager’s door

“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and Diego Peralta trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.
