Player ratings11 Jan 2027

Pablo Santiago runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 30. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Market11 Jan 2027

Ronaldo 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 The request is on a desk at Castellón, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad11 Jan 2027

Iñigo Córdoba signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Iñigo Córdoba commits to Castellón for another 4 years.

Squad11 Jan 2027

The step up is real for Eric González

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.

Squad11 Jan 2027

Words exchanged at Castellón

Jérémy Mellot 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.

Squad11 Jan 2027

Defences have started doubling up on Ousmane Camara

12 goals and a season average of 7.26 will do that. The space he used to find has gone; he keeps scoring anyway, which is the mark of the real thing.

The dugout11 Jan 2027

Alberto Jiménez gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Match9 Jan 2027

Castellón end the wait against Mirandés

It had gone 5 games. The players did not celebrate like men who had won a match; they celebrated like men who had been let out of something.

Market11 Jan 2027

One of our own: Víctor Hidalgo joins the Castellón first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Víctor Hidalgo is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Match29 Aug 2026

Ousmane Camara breaks Las Palmas hearts

Some goals win a match and some take one off somebody else. Ousmane Camara scored in the 88th minute, Las Palmas had already begun thinking about the journey home, and Castellón took the lot.

Market31 Aug 2026

Eric González is a Castellón player

The fee is $730.0K, the contract is signed, and the argument about whether he is worth it can begin. Defensores Unidos drove a hard bargain; time will say who won it.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Tempers go at Castellón

Jérémy Mellot 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.

Transfer targets31 Aug 2026

Door shut on Oscar Belinetz

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

The dugout31 Aug 2026

The manager makes an example of Alberto Jiménez

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Match29 Aug 2026

Castellón see off Las Palmas

Three points for Castellón, 1‑0 the final word against Las Palmas in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Number 50 for Ousmane Camara

50 goals for this club, and somewhere in the stand there is a person who can still tell you where they were for most of them.

Squad31 Aug 2026

A row about effort at Castellón

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Beñat Gerenabarrena was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Player ratings31 Aug 2026

One of those days for Ousmane Camara

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.35, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Match29 Aug 2026

Santiago Patroni wins it after the whistle should have gone

91 minutes played. Santiago Patroni found the finish in time that only existed because of earlier delays, and Agropecuario Argentino went from a point to nothing inside one movement.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Francisco Salerno stands alone

6 saves, and a scoreline the ten men in front of him had no right to. Goalkeepers only get noticed on the bad days; this was one of the other ones.

The terraces31 Aug 2026

Defensores Unidos sell a favourite for $730.0K

The accountants will call it good business and they will be right, which is not the point anybody outside the boardroom is making. Eric González was one of the reasons people came, and $730.0K does not replace that by itself.

Squad31 Aug 2026

A falling-out at Defensores Unidos

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

Market31 Aug 2026

Defensores Unidos sell Eric González for $730.0K

Eric González has left for Castellón in a $730.0K deal. The accountants are pleased; the supporters are less certain.

Match29 Aug 2026

Santiago Patroni the difference as Defensores Unidos beat Agropecuario Argentino

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Santiago Patroni. 1‑0 against Agropecuario Argentino, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

Player ratings31 Aug 2026

Nobody could get near Lautaro Disanto

Successful dribbles: 17. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

The dugout31 Aug 2026

The manager makes an example of Julio López

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

The dugout31 Aug 2026

Roberto Paz has his say

“We earned that. I asked them for a reaction and I got one, and now I want the same again on Saturday.” Roberto Paz on a 1‑0 afternoon that pleased him more than he was prepared to show.

Transfer targets24 Aug 2026

Fee done, terms next for Eric González

Castellón and Defensores Unidos have settled on $730.0K. The rest belongs to the player and his agent, and a supporter who has watched one of these before knows not to buy the shirt yet.

Transfer targets24 Aug 2026

Castellón rebuffed over Pepe Sánchez

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

Transfer targets24 Aug 2026

No thanks: Denis Bouanga rejects the move

Castellón had done everything except persuade the man himself. He stays at Los Angeles Football Club, and the manager goes back to the drawing board with the money still in the bank.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Words exchanged at Castellón

Jérémy Mellot 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.

Match22 Aug 2026

Castellón get the job done against Málaga

A 2‑0 win over Málaga, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Player ratings24 Aug 2026

Ninety minutes of Pablo Santiago at his very best

Marked 8.43. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Castellón.

Player ratings24 Aug 2026

Israel Suero was on a different afternoon to everybody else

8.17. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.

Transfer targets24 Aug 2026

A loan move for Rubén López is in the works

Castellón have made the call to Deportivo La Coruña. No fee, a share of the wages, and a spare shirt in the position where the squad has been thinnest all season.

The dugout24 Aug 2026

The view from the dugout

“We controlled it. There were spells I did not like and we will look at them, but the group showed me something.” Daniel Herrero, on a 2‑0 win that he was already picking apart on the walk to the press room.
