$2.5M from Lanús for Martín Campos. Money is money, but the dressing room has lost the man it looked to.

There are footballers who have a good season and footballers a season is remembered for, and the second kind get their names read out in a hall in the summer. Ferro Carril Oeste will be quietly delighted and privately nervous.

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Ferro Carril Oeste can pretend not to have heard.

Mateo Acosta 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 Ferro Carril Oeste this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

“I did not go to Inter Miami CF to sit and watch. I want to come back to Ferro Carril Oeste and fight for my place.” 5 appearances in 19 matches say the rest.

Talleres are about to pick up the phone
A conversation is coming this week. Ferro Carril Oeste will put a number on him, and from there it stops being football and becomes arithmetic.

Nazareno Kihm 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.

“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 The request is on a desk at Ferro Carril Oeste, and it is not being withdrawn.

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