Albacete get their man

The chase for Ander Zoilo ended with $490.0K changing hands and Tenerife out of reasons to say no. The supporters will judge the fee the only way that matters: on Saturdays.

Squad28 Aug 2028

Tempers go at Albacete

Antonio Puertas was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Theo Bravo gets the move he always wanted

Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. Theo Bravo has just signed for Albacete, and for once the answer mattered.

Transfer targets28 Aug 2028

Door shut on Gori

Albacete asked and Juventud Torremolinos said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Squad28 Aug 2028

Víctor Valverde falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Market28 Aug 2028

No place for Ivan Guzmán in the plan

“The manager did not use many words, and he did not need to.” Ivan Guzmán has his answer from Albacete; what he does with it is the next window’s story.

Squad28 Aug 2028

The formation has left Alejandro Salas behind

Every shape has positions in it and this one does not have his. Albacete will either change the shape, change his job, or change his club, and he is waiting to hear which.

The dugout28 Aug 2028

When it matters, Javi Moreno 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.

Market28 Aug 2028

The Antonio Pacheco talk will not go away

Another week, another link, another denial nobody quite believes. Albacete know the market decides these things, not the back pages — but the back pages are louder.

From our football correspondent Steady

Transfer targets10 Jul 2028

Vélez agree $470.0K for Marcelo Estigarribia

The clubs have shaken hands with Unión de Santa Fe; the player has not yet. Personal terms are next, and personal terms are where more deals die than anybody prints.

Market10 Jul 2028

Racing Santander come back empty-handed

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

Transfer targets10 Jul 2028

The paperwork begins on Oscar Toledo

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

Transfer targets10 Jul 2028

No thanks: Ramiro García rejects the move

Vélez had done everything except persuade the man himself. He stays at Boca Juniors, and the manager goes back to the drawing board with the money still in the bank.

Transfer targets10 Jul 2028

No deal for Marcos Ledesma at that price

Vélez offered $920.0K; Defensa y Justicia 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.

Boardroom10 Jul 2028

Theo Bravo signs for San Martín SJ while still at Vélez

The rules permit it and it stings anyway. Theo Bravo has agreed terms with San Martín SJ for the summer, and until then he pulls on this shirt as a player who has already chosen his next one.

Market10 Jul 2028

Business is business: Tahiel Peralta goes

River Plate paid $1.3M and Vélez took it, which is the whole story in one sentence. The longer version involves a wage budget and will be told all season.

Loan watch10 Jul 2028

Agustín Cortez has seen enough of Flandria

“I am grateful for the games, but I did not become a footballer to be somebody else's spare part.” He wants to be at Vélez, and 4 appearances in 26 say he has earned the hearing.

Squad10 Jul 2028

Leonel Roldán signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Leonel Roldán commits to Vélez for another 4 years.
