A falling-out at Uberlândia
Jesús Molina and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Competition arrives for Jonathan
A new face in his position and a shirt he thought he owned suddenly up for discussion. Uberlândia have promised nothing, which is what clubs promise at this stage.

Uberlândia pick up Murilo Rian for nothing
The best deals are the ones the accountants never notice. Murilo Rian arrives at Uberlândia with his wages the only cost and something to prove the only clause.

Still no ink between Uberlândia and Murilo Rian
“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at Uberlândia, another week without a signature from Murilo Rian.
