Market

Terms done: Didi is going

Fee agreed, wages agreed, and Paredes waiting with a shirt. Nobody at Felgueiras is pretending otherwise, and the supporters have stopped asking whether and started asking when.

Market

Farense come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Felgueiras did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Boardroom

Felgueiras close the window on a squad of their own making

21 in and 23 out, and no more changes for months. The manager has what he has, the supporters have their opinion of it, and the table will have the last word.

Boardroom

Felgueiras go back to the board over Nuno Matos

The number the board signed off was not enough. It has been asked again and raised its own offer to $161.0K — a club that wants Nuno Matos enough to be asked twice.

Transfer targets

Brenno is a medical away from Felgueiras

The deal with Sport Recife is done in every sense but the one that puts him on the pitch. Nothing goes wrong at this stage, except on the occasions when it does.

Squad

Tempers go at Felgueiras

Jeferson was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Transfer targets

Felgueiras baulk at the price for Nuno Matos

Braga wanted more than $150.0K and the board would not go there. Walked away, for now, which in a transfer window means until somebody blinks.

Squad

A row about effort at Felgueiras

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Gustavo was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Transfer targets

Felgueiras rebuffed over Diogo Travassos

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

Squad

A falling-out at Felgueiras

Jeferson and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Transfer targets

No deal for Gabriel Souza at that price

Felgueiras offered $58.0K; Lusitânia Lourosa said it was not close. The manager will be told the money is still there for the right player, which is what managers are told.

Transfer targets

Felgueiras rebuffed over Michael Verrips

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

Market

Farense join the queue for Filipe Cruz

Add another name to the list: Farense have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Filipe Cruz. The answer from Felgueiras has not changed — yet.

Match

Felgueiras refuse to lose to Leiria

A point taken on 86 minutes is worth exactly one point and considerably more than that to a dressing room. This side does not stop, which is a reputation worth more than the result.

Player ratings

Lucas Duarte beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 17. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Transfer targets

Felgueiras try to borrow Santiago Beltrán

River Plate have been asked whether they would lend him. Loans are agreed quickly or not at all, and this one will be one or the other by the weekend.

The dugout

Felgueiras pick somebody else ahead of Felipe Scheibig

There is no complaint available here and everybody involved knows it, which does not make the walk to the bench any shorter. Form is the only currency in football that cannot be borrowed against.

Match

Felgueiras and Leiria take a point apiece

It finished 1‑1, and it somehow always looked like it would. One of those afternoons where the table moves less than the tempers.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Transfer targets

Felgueiras rebuffed over Abraham Marcus

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

Boardroom

Felgueiras go back to the board over Gabriel Souza

The number the board signed off was not enough. It has been asked again and raised its own offer to $62.6K — a club that wants Gabriel Souza enough to be asked twice.

Squad

Words exchanged at Felgueiras

Jeferson 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

An offer of $58.0K for Gabriel Souza

Felgueiras have gone to Lusitânia Lourosa 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.

Transfer targets

Felgueiras baulk at the price for Mamadou Tounkara

Chaves wanted more than $90.0K and the board would not go there. Walked away, for now, which in a transfer window means until somebody blinks.

Squad

Gustavo falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Player ratings

Michel Costa ran the middle of the pitch — 6.61

He won it back and then made something of it, which is two jobs and the reason the scoreline looks the way it does. 9 combined actions and a mark of 6.61, and not one of them will make a highlights package.

Market

Felgueiras and Mateus Pasinato are talking past each other

“There is a gap, and pretending there is not helps nobody.” Neither side has moved, and the calendar is working for exactly one of them.

Squad

Felgueiras are still strangers to each other

17 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.
