Marked for Daniel Batty

The Charlton Athletic Gazette

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Market24 Jan 2028

Sonny Carey has said yes to Aston Villa

The last thing about a transfer that is still about the player is his signature on his own terms, and it is there. Charlton Athletic have lost him in all but the paperwork.

Market24 Jan 2028

Sheffield United come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Charlton Athletic did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Market24 Jan 2028

Zach Mitchell hands in a written request

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

Match22 Jan 2028

The wait goes on for Charlton Athletic

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.

Match22 Jan 2028

The goals have deserted Charlton Athletic

4 matches, no goals, and a training ground that has tried everything. It will end — droughts always do — but nobody at Charlton Athletic can tell you which week it ends in.

Boardroom24 Jan 2028

Daniel Batty will join Charlton Athletic for nothing

The paperwork is done long before the player is. Daniel Batty has agreed terms to come here when his current deal runs out, which means Charlton Athletic have spent a summer's transfer budget on a phone call.

Squad24 Jan 2028

Words exchanged at Charlton Athletic

Thomas Kaminski 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.

Match18 Jan 2028

Charlton Athletic come up short against Luton Town

Luton Town left with the points after a 0‑2 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

The dugout24 Jan 2028

Zach Mitchell frozen out at Charlton Athletic

This is not rotation. Zach Mitchell has not been in the manager's plans for some time, and nobody at Charlton Athletic is pretending otherwise.

In brief

The Tottenham Post

24 Jan 2028
From our football correspondent Upbeat

Market24 Jan 2028

Francisco Trincão is a Tottenham player

The fee is $106.4M, the contract is signed, and the argument about whether he is worth it can begin. Athletic Bilbao drove a hard bargain; time will say who won it.

Market24 Jan 2028

Tottenham sell Diogo Costa for $70.6M

Diogo Costa has left for Barcelona in a $70.6M deal. The accountants are pleased; the supporters are less certain.

Transfer targets24 Jan 2028

Tottenham rebuffed over James Garner

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Nottingham Forest have kept their man, and Tottenham go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Match19 Jan 2028

The cup run ends for Tottenham

1‑3 against Crystal Palace, and the road stops here. Cup exits are quick deaths — no second leg, no next week, just the league from now until May.

Market24 Jan 2028

Not going: Archie Gray stays at Tottenham

“I know what people will say. I know what I want, and it is here.” Bolton Wanderers had the fee agreed and the shirt ready; they did not have the player, and now they will not.

The terraces24 Jan 2028

Tottenham sell a favourite for $70.6M

The accountants will call it good business and they will be right, which is not the point anybody outside the boardroom is making. Diogo Costa was one of the reasons people came, and $70.6M does not replace that by itself.

Market24 Jan 2028

Martin Dúbravka hands in a written request

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

Player ratings24 Jan 2028

Radu Drăguşin goes up and wins it — 7.82

A defender on the scoresheet, which happens rarely enough that everybody in the ground remembers who took the corner. 1 for him, and a mark of 7.82 for the rest of it.

Boardroom24 Jan 2028

Daniel Batty has agreed to leave Tottenham 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.

In brief
