Market

Terms done: Jashar Beluli is going

Fee agreed, wages agreed, and Kolding IF waiting with a shirt. Nobody at Aarhus Fremad is pretending otherwise, and the supporters have stopped asking whether and started asking when.

Market

Magnus Kirchheiner hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Aarhus Fremad can pretend not to have heard.

Transfer targets

Malthe Boesen is a medical away from Aarhus Fremad

The deal with B.93 is done in every sense but the one that puts him on the pitch. Nothing goes wrong at this stage, except on the occasions when it does.

Squad

Tempers go at Aarhus Fremad

Magnus Kaastrup 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.

The dugout

Jashar Beluli frozen out at Aarhus Fremad

This is not rotation. Jashar Beluli has not been in the manager's plans for some time, and nobody at Aarhus Fremad is pretending otherwise.

Transfer targets

Aarhus Fremad rebuffed over Sanel Bojadzic

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

Squad

A row about effort at Aarhus Fremad

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Kenay Myrie was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

The dugout

Oluwasegun Olalere 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.

The dugout

Shae Cahill 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

Market

Angelo Nehme asks to leave Aarhus Fremad

“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

Jochem Nap has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Aarhus Fremad they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Transfer targets

William Nieroth Lundgren due for a Aarhus Fremad medical

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

Squad

Words exchanged at Aarhus Fremad

Magnus Kaastrup 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.

The dugout

Simon Bækgaard frozen out at Aarhus Fremad

This is not rotation. Simon Bækgaard has not been in the manager's plans for some time, and nobody at Aarhus Fremad is pretending otherwise.

Transfer targets

Door shut on Rasmus Lauritsen

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

Squad

Kenay Myrie 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.

Transfer targets

Aarhus Fremad try to borrow Sondre Fosnæss Hanssen

Fredrikstad 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

6 new faces, and Aarhus Fremad are still learning each other

A squad rebuilt inside one window pays for it in a currency nobody budgets for. The football is not worse than the sum of the players; it is worse than the sum of the players who have played together before.

In brief
