Squad

A fracture rules Orlan Villero out for 23 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Barranquilla will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Market

Barranquilla say no — this time

The offer from Independiente Medellin for Joel Canchimbo 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.

The dugout

Alberto Higgins: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Barranquilla have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Market

Only the photograph left for Leyner Liñan

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Leyner Liñan will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Barranquilla the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Boardroom

Darwin Torres has agreed to leave Barranquilla 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

Words exchanged at Barranquilla

José Luis Caicedo 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.

Squad

At 21, Joel Canchimbo is already the best thing here

An average of 7.06 in a first team he is several years too young for. Barranquilla have something, and by now the whole division has noticed.

Market

Jaime Acosta moves on

Once Caldas pay $69.0K, and the deal is done. The number reads well on a balance sheet; whether it reads well on the pitch is next season's question.

Transfer targets

Door shut on Juan Manuel Guerrero

Barranquilla asked and Atletico Nacional said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

In brief
