The Arouca Chronicle

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Match9 Jan 2027

15 matches without a win for Arouca

The run now stands at 15, and the questions being asked around Arouca are no longer polite ones.

Squad11 Jan 2027

A falling-out at Arouca

Naïs Djouahra and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Squad11 Jan 2027

The step up is real for Jackson

At 20 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.

Transfer targets11 Jan 2027

Door shut on Andrea Favilli

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

Market11 Jan 2027

Tondela join the queue for Diogo Monteiro

Add another name to the list: Tondela have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Diogo Monteiro. The answer from Arouca has not changed — yet.

Market11 Jan 2027

Arouca promote Pedro Neves from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Pedro Neves has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

Squad11 Jan 2027

Espen van Ee falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

A masterclass from Dylan Nandín

Marked 8.11 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

Transfer targets11 Jan 2027

Arouca try to borrow Ronwen Mkhize

SuperSport United have been asked whether they would lend him. Loans are agreed quickly or not at all, and this one will be one or the other by the weekend.

The Santos Chronicle

5 Oct 2026
From our football correspondent Steady

Player ratings5 Oct 2026

Vintage Neymar — 7.92

At 34 every good afternoon gets called a throwback, and this one was: 7.92, and nobody on the pitch better.

Market5 Oct 2026

David Nogueira puts it in writing

“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 Santos, and it is not being withdrawn.

Market5 Oct 2026

Enzo Boer has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Santos they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Boardroom5 Oct 2026

Santos to lose Jackson for free

There is no worse way to lose a footballer. Jackson has pre-agreed a move away, which means every appearance between now and June is made by a man the club can no longer sell, and somebody upstairs will be asked why the contract was allowed to get here.

Squad5 Oct 2026

Diego Santos is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 19 he is doing things at this level he could not do at the start of the season, and the coaching staff will tell you exactly which of them.

Squad5 Oct 2026

Tempers go at Santos

Guilherme Cruz 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.

Squad5 Oct 2026

Neymar falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Squad5 Oct 2026

Willian Arão slips down the pecking order

The demotion a club never announces and a dressing room always notices. Willian Arão is further from the side than he was, and the reason will not be given until he asks.

Match3 Oct 2026

Santos share the spoils with Vitória

A 1‑1 draw with Vitória leaves the dressing room somewhere between relief and regret.
