Market

Leonardo Loria agrees terms with Pescara

The clubs have settled the fee and he has settled his wages. What remains is a medical and a photograph, and around Pisa people have started saying his name in the past tense.

Transfer targets

An offer of $6.3M for Yunus Musah

Pisa have gone to AC Milan with a bid, and the supporters have gone to the internet with an opinion about it. Whether either changes anything is up to the selling club.

Market

Mateus Lusuardi asks to leave Pisa

“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.

Transfer targets

Pisa make their move for Stefano Filigheddu

$1.1M on the table at Lumezzane. The manager wanted him, the board agreed a number, and the only voices still to be heard are the ones at the other club.

Market

Eric Biasiol is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Pisa is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Squad

Mattéo Tramoni 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 Pisa this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

The step up is real for Kaleb Dyke

At 21 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.

Squad

Alan Palavecino arrives at the club he grew up with

Every footballer has an answer to the question about his boyhood club, and most of them never get to act on it. Alan Palavecino has, at Pisa, and the first month will show what that does to a man.

Transfer targets

Pisa rebuffed over Benjamín Araya

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

In brief

Back issues

From our football correspondent Steady

Squad

21 days out for Nicolò Lombardo after a fracture

A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. Pisa will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.

Market

Jeremy Kandje Mbambi is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Pisa is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Market

Kaleb Dyke 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 Pisa, and it is not being withdrawn.

Boardroom

Pisa to lose Simone Paolini for free

There is no worse way to lose a footballer. Simone Paolini 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.

Squad

Mattéo Tramoni 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 Pisa this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Simone Canestrelli 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.

Transfer targets

Frosinone tell Pisa: Lucas Dilelio is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Match

Pisa find a way past Lecce

Lecce made Pisa work for it, but the scoreboard read 2‑1 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Market

AJ Auxerre join the queue for Alessio Nepi

Add another name to the list: AJ Auxerre have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Alessio Nepi. The answer from Pisa has not changed — yet.
