Market

Samukele Kabini asks to leave Molde

“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

Gift Sunday is a Molde player

The fee is $580.0K, the contract is signed, and the argument about whether he is worth it can begin. Bodo/Glimt drove a hard bargain; time will say who won it.

Transfer targets

No deal for Johan Meyer at that price

Molde offered $980.0K; IK Start said it was not close. The manager will be told the money is still there for the right player, which is what managers are told.

Squad

Real improvement from Daniel Risan Nakken at Molde

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Daniel Risan Nakken is 18, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

The dugout

When it matters, Mats Møller Dæhli plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

Squad

Words exchanged at Molde

Gift Sunday 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

No place for Gift Sunday in the new shape

He is not being dropped. There is simply nowhere in the formation Molde are playing to put a man who does what he does, which is a harder thing to be told than any team sheet.

Market

Emil Breivik linked with a move away

The name of Emil Breivik keeps appearing in other people's back pages. Molde say nothing, which says plenty.

The dugout

Ylldren Ibrahimaj 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.

In brief
