The dugout

Adilson says Córdoba went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Player ratings

Sandro scores twice — 8.40

Two goals and a mark of 8.40 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Market

Juan José Barreña asks to leave Córdoba

“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.

Boardroom

Window shuts: 41 in, 20 out at Córdoba

The deadline has passed and the squad is the squad. 41 arrived, 20 left, and everything else printed about this club last month was a rumour that stayed one.

Market

Córdoba say no — this time

The offer from Andorra for Nikolay Obolskiy was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Market

David Voûte is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Córdoba is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Match

The wait goes on for Córdoba

4 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

Boardroom

David Voûte has agreed to leave Córdoba for nothing

He will play here until the summer and then walk out of the door for free, having already signed elsewhere. Supporters will manage the first part of that sentence; it is the second they will struggle with.

Squad

Tempers go at Córdoba

Pedro Díaz 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.

Boardroom

The scrutiny sharpens at Córdoba

Nobody upstairs has said anything, which is the loudest thing they could do. Results buy silence in this game; the account at Córdoba is running low.

Market

Angel Yondjo agrees terms with Canon Yaounde

The clubs have settled the fee and he has settled his wages. What remains is a medical and a photograph, and around Córdoba people have started saying his name in the past tense.

Transfer targets

Córdoba baulk at the price for Luka Sučić

Real Sociedad wanted more than $9.1M and the board would not go there. Walked away, for now, which in a transfer window means until somebody blinks.

Transfer targets

Sandro is a medical away from Córdoba

The deal with Las Palmas 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.

Market

Business is business: Theo goes

Girona paid $4.0M and Córdoba took it, which is the whole story in one sentence. The longer version involves a wage budget and will be told all season.

Market

Villarreal watching Guilherme Fernandes

The interest is real enough to have reached print. Córdoba have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

Squad

The step up is real for Mario Maroto

At 23 he is doing things this season that he could not do last season, and doing them every week. Form comes and goes; this has stayed long enough to be called something else.

Market

David Voûte asks to leave Córdoba

“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.

Squad

Tempers go at Córdoba

Valentín Gómez 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.
