The last thing about a transfer that is still about the player is his signature on his own terms, and it is there. Alavés have lost him in all but the paperwork.

An offer of $30.0M for Antony
Alavés have gone to Betis with a bid, and the supporters have gone to the internet with an opinion about it. Whether either changes anything is up to the selling club.

Legia come back empty-handed
The bid was some way short and Alavés did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Alavés rebuffed over Ionuţ Radu
Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Celta have kept their man, and Alavés go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Alavés go back to the board over Antony
The number the board signed off was not enough. It has been asked again and raised its own offer to $32.3M — a club that wants Antony enough to be asked twice.

Lucas Boyé signs on for more
“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Lucas Boyé and Alavés agree another 4 years.

Toni Martínez in a row with a teammate
It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Alavés this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Eyes on Abde again
The phone has started ringing about Abde again, and this time the name on the line is Mallorca. Alavés are listening politely and promising nothing.
