Market

Kalle Wallius 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 Ilves can pretend not to have heard.

Market

Nils Veinbergs agrees terms with TPS

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

Market

Ilves say no — this time

The offer from Ekenäs IF for Otso Virtanen 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.

Market

Eyes on Roope Riski again

The phone has started ringing about Roope Riski again, and this time the name on the line is Ekenäs IF. Ilves are listening politely and promising nothing.

The dugout

Oskari Multala keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Ilves may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Transfer targets

The paperwork begins on Ramilson Almeida

A medical, a signature, a shirt held up in front of a sponsor’s board. Ilves have done the hard part with HJK, and the part that remains is the part supporters actually see.

Transfer targets

Adrian Skogmar turns down Ilves

The clubs had agreed and the player had not. A snub, and a public one: Malmo FF keep him, and the supporters here are left wondering what he had heard about the place.

Squad

Words exchanged at Ilves

Roope Riski 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.

Match

Jonathan Muzinga among the goals in a wild afternoon

6 goals in one match, Jonathan Muzinga on the scoresheet, and a scoreline that will look like a misprint. Neutrals could not have asked more of Ilves and Inter Turku.

Market

Not going: Otso Virtanen stays at Ilves

“I know what people will say. I know what I want, and it is here.” PK-35 had the fee agreed and the shirt ready; they did not have the player, and now they will not.

Market

Lauri Ala-Myllymäki asks to leave Ilves

“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.

Market

FF Jaro come back empty-handed

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

Transfer targets

Juhani Pikkarainen due for a Ilves medical

Everything agreed with HJK, everything agreed with the player; a doctor is the only person left to persuade. The photograph is a day or two away.

Transfer targets

Daníel Guðjohnsen will not be coming to Ilves

Terms were offered and declined. Whether it was the wages, the role or the town, nobody at Malmo FF is saying, and nobody at Ilves is enjoying the guessing.

Squad

Matias Tamminen 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 Ilves this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Transfer targets

HJK tell Ilves: Juhani Pikkarainen 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.

Market

Roope Riski is free to find somewhere else

“I was told straight, and I would rather have it straight.” The manager at Ilves has been clear about where Roope Riski stands, which is more than many ever get.

Squad

Oskari Multala signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Oskari Multala commits to Ilves for another 4 years.
