Lucas Mugni breaks a bone — 106 days out
Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 106 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

No end in sight to Ceará's wait for a win
7 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Ceará has to find a result from somewhere.
