Squad

Ezequiel Rossi says Instituto went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Squad

Jonathan Galván 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.

Match

Estudiantes take the points off Instituto

Beaten 0-1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Squad

Jonathan Dellarossa asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

Market

Alex Luna linked with a move away

The name of Alex Luna keeps appearing in other people's back pages. Instituto say nothing, which says plenty.

Market

Agustín Aleo asks to leave Instituto

“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.

Squad

Alex Luna is carrying Instituto

13 goals and a season average of 7.57. Form like that gets noticed well beyond this town.

Match

Still nobody has beaten Instituto

The unbeaten run reaches 8. Some of them were wins and some were escapes, but a side that refuses to lose is a side other dressing rooms talk about.

Match

Instituto get the job done against Central Córdoba SdE

A 1-0 win over Central Córdoba SdE, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Agustín Aleo gets it from the manager

Squad

Jeremías Lázaro knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Instituto, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Market

Agustín Aleo runs his contract down

2 months remain and no agreement is close. Every week without a signature costs Instituto money.

Market

Ezequiel Rossi placed on the list

Instituto have made Ezequiel Rossi available for transfer. A career at this club is over in all but paperwork.

Market

Agustín Aleo is on his way

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

Oscar Garrido 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.
