Match

Gil Vicente run riot against Santa Clara

3‑0, and the margin flattered nobody — it could have carried another goal or two without complaint. Afternoons like this are why people keep coming.

Market

Facundo Cáseres asks to leave Gil Vicente

“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

Estevão Spencer breaks a bone — 99 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 99 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Market

Gil Vicente sell Santi García for $9.7M

Santi García has left for Farense in a $9.7M deal. The accountants are pleased; the supporters are less certain.

Player ratings

No sign of nerves from Nick Oyekunle at 19 — 8.17

The hardest thing about being 19 in a senior side is that nobody makes allowances. Nick Oyekunle did not need any: 8.17, and he looked the most comfortable man on the pitch.

The terraces

Gil Vicente sell a favourite for $9.7M

The accountants will call it good business and they will be right, which is not the point anybody outside the boardroom is making. Santi García was one of the reasons people came, and $9.7M does not replace that by itself.

Market

Gil Vicente sell Héctor Hernández for $5.5M

Héctor Hernández has left for Gornik Leczna in a $5.5M deal. The accountants are pleased; the supporters are less certain.

Market

Gil Vicente turn down Chaves for Mohamed Kaba

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

Boardroom

Gil Vicente go back to the board over Cihan Kahraman

The number the board signed off was not enough. It has been asked again and raised its own offer to $244.8K — a club that wants Cihan Kahraman enough to be asked twice.

In brief
