Squad

Marcos Heredia damages knee ligaments — 32 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 32 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Transfer targets

Agustín Arambillete due for a Lito medical

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

Transfer targets

Pablo Suárez will not be coming to Lito

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

Squad

Words exchanged at Lito

Gabriel Fernández 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.

Transfer targets

Lito rebuffed over Jonathan Ríos

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

Squad

Words at Lito training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Matías Figueredo is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Nicolás Mouro

“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.

Transfer targets

Lito try to borrow Manuel Idiarte

Juventud have been asked whether they would lend him. Loans are agreed quickly or not at all, and this one will be one or the other by the weekend.

Squad

Benjamín Brito needs a bigger stage

He is doing things every Saturday that nobody around him can answer. It is flattering for a season and a problem after that, and Lito know which stage they are at.

Squad

The knee: Marcos Heredia out for 39 days

39 days on the announcement, and a year of quiet, unwatched rehabilitation behind it. Lito lose a player for a season; he loses something harder to name.

Squad

Words exchanged at Lito

Anthony Souza 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.

Squad

Benjamín Brito signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Benjamín Brito commits to Lito for another 3 years.
