Market14 Dec 2026

San Miguel turn down Deportivo Maldonado for Juan Manuel Lungarzo

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

The dugout14 Dec 2026

The manager makes an example of David Muller

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Market14 Dec 2026

Kevin Ceceri is free to find somewhere else

“I was told straight, and I would rather have it straight.” The manager at San Miguel has been clear about where Kevin Ceceri stands, which is more than many ever get.

Market7 Dec 2026

Eyes on Juan Manuel Lungarzo again

The phone has started ringing about Juan Manuel Lungarzo again, and this time the name on the line is Deportivo Maldonado. San Miguel are listening politely and promising nothing.

Squad7 Dec 2026

Words exchanged at San Miguel

Matías Benítez 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.

Market7 Dec 2026

Alexis Cruz is free to find somewhere else

“I was told straight, and I would rather have it straight.” The manager at San Miguel has been clear about where Alexis Cruz stands, which is more than many ever get.

Squad7 Dec 2026

Iván Ramírez slips down the pecking order

The demotion a club never announces and a dressing room always notices. Iván Ramírez is further from the side than he was, and the reason will not be given until he asks.

The dugout7 Dec 2026

Iván Ramírez gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

The dugout7 Dec 2026

Lucas Delgado gets picked when it counts

Every manager keeps a short list in his head of the men he wants on the pitch when the stakes rise, and it is never published. The team sheets for the big afternoons say Lucas Delgado is on it.

Boardroom7 Dec 2026

Open for business: San Miguel enter the window

The registration window is open and the phone has started. Between now and the deadline this club will be linked with forty players and sign three, which is the usual ratio.

Market7 Dec 2026

San Miguel put Leandro Desábato up for sale

The list is a quiet document with a loud meaning. Leandro Desábato may talk to anybody who asks, and everybody at the club understands what that means.

Market7 Dec 2026

The Alexis Cruz story refuses to die

It has been denied twice and printed three times, which is the usual arithmetic. Until Alexis Cruz signs something — a contract at San Miguel or anywhere else — this column belongs to him.

Boardroom2 Nov 2026

The San Miguel board want somebody sold

The instruction has come from upstairs rather than from the dugout, which is the version of this conversation no manager enjoys. Somebody in that squad is now available whether the man who picks the team thinks so or not.

Boardroom2 Nov 2026

Wages swallow 211% of the San Miguel income

Every club pays most of what it earns to its players. Paying nearly all of it is a different arrangement, and it has ended the same way every time it has been tried.

The dugout2 Nov 2026

David Muller gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

The dugout2 Nov 2026

San Miguel keep their word to Alexis Cruz

Clubs make promises constantly and the page usually only hears about them when they are broken. This one was honoured, and the dressing room noticed that faster than any supporter did.

The dugout2 Nov 2026

Máximo Oses is still being punished for one mistake

Nobody will confirm it and the team sheets confirm it every week. One error has bought him a spell as second choice that is already longer than the error deserved.

Market2 Nov 2026

Alexis Cruz placed on the list

San Miguel have made Alexis Cruz available for transfer. A career at this club is over in all but paperwork.

The dugout2 Nov 2026

Thomas Carosio gets picked when it counts

Every manager keeps a short list in his head of the men he wants on the pitch when the stakes rise, and it is never published. The team sheets for the big afternoons say Thomas Carosio is on it.

Squad2 Nov 2026

Damián Adín loses the armband

The captaincy has been taken off Damián Adín. San Miguel will call it a decision about the team; a dressing room reads it as a verdict on a man.

Squad2 Nov 2026

Bruno Nasta takes the armband

It is a strip of cloth and it decides nothing on a Saturday. It still tells the dressing room exactly whose opinion the manager values, which is the whole point of it.

The dugout12 Oct 2026

Juan Manuel Lungarzo: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” San Miguel have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Squad12 Oct 2026

Words exchanged at San Miguel

Matías Benítez 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.

The dugout12 Oct 2026

No hiding place for Tomás Díaz Grassano

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

The dugout12 Oct 2026

Gustavo Fernández asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

Looking ahead12 Oct 2026

David Muller faces his old club

Colegiales next, and one man in the San Miguel dressing room knows their training ground better than his own. The reception will tell him what they thought of him.

The dugout12 Oct 2026

When it matters, Lucas Delgado 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 Alexis Cruz story refuses to die

It has been denied twice and printed three times, which is the usual arithmetic. Until Alexis Cruz signs something — a contract at San Miguel or anywhere else — this column belongs to him.

Peter Grance Martínez placed on the list

San Miguel have made Peter Grance Martínez available for transfer. A career at this club is over in all but paperwork.

Squad12 Oct 2026

Jonathan Bay has settled at San Miguel

The shrug has gone, the language is coming, and he now argues in training like somebody who expects to be here next year. Half a signing's value is this and none of it appears on a fee.

Facundo Cardozo 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 San Miguel, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Leandro Desábato slips down the pecking order

The demotion a club never announces and a dressing room always notices. Leandro Desábato is further from the side than he was, and the reason will not be given until he asks.

Squad7 Sep 2026

A place in the month's best eleven for Máximo Oses

Four or five weekends of consistency, judged against everybody in the division doing his job. Máximo Oses has come out of that comparison in the side, and San Miguel have had the benefit of every one of those afternoons.

The dugout7 Sep 2026

David Muller gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Squad7 Sep 2026

San Miguel have started building around Peter Grance Martínez

He used to be one of the options. He is now one of the men the options are picked around, and the change happened quietly enough that only the dressing room noticed on the day.

The dugout7 Sep 2026

Dixon Rentería 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 San Miguel, and both men came out saying it was fine.

The dugout7 Sep 2026

When it matters, Thomas Carosio 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.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Is this Leandro Desábato’s last season?

“I will know when it is time. I am not there yet.” Leandro Desábato is 36, with 244 appearances behind him, and San Miguel will have to plan for whichever answer comes.

Market7 Sep 2026

Talks stall between San Miguel and Tomás Jerez

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.
