Match28 Oct 2026

Yverdon bow out of the cup

Lausanne-Sport go through and Yverdon go home, 1‑3 the scoreline that did it. The dressing room will call the league the priority now, because that is what dressing rooms say.

Match31 Oct 2026

6 matches without a win for Yverdon

The run now stands at 6, and the questions being asked around Yverdon are no longer polite ones.

Player ratings2 Nov 2026

Vintage Dejan Šorgić — 7.90

At 37 every good afternoon gets called a throwback, and this one was: 7.90, and nobody on the pitch better.

Player ratings2 Nov 2026

Dixon Vera runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 24. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad2 Nov 2026

A row about effort at Yverdon

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

The dugout2 Nov 2026

Timo Königsmann 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.

Market2 Nov 2026

Still no ink between Yverdon and Anas Bakhat

“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at Yverdon, another week without a signature from Anas Bakhat.

The dugout2 Nov 2026

A promise honoured for Miguel Terceros

It is not much of a headline and it is the reason players believe the next promise. Yverdon told Miguel Terceros something would happen and then it happened, which in this industry passes for remarkable.

Squad2 Nov 2026

Tempers go at Yverdon

Samba Só 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.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Ashvin Balaruban was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 26. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.

Transfer targets14 Sep 2026

Idrissa Guèye will not be coming to Yverdon

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

Match12 Sep 2026

Yverdon cannot find the net

3 games without scoring. Strikers stop looking up, midfielders take the extra touch, and every shot that clears the bar is followed by a groan that has been building since the last goal.

Transfer targets14 Sep 2026

Red Bull Salzburg tell Yverdon: Tim Drexler is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

The dugout14 Sep 2026

The manager makes an example of Anas Bakhat

“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.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Words exchanged at Yverdon

Samba Só 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 dugout14 Sep 2026

Yverdon pick somebody else ahead of Timo Königsmann

There is no complaint available here and everybody involved knows it, which does not make the walk to the bench any shorter. Form is the only currency in football that cannot be borrowed against.

The dugout14 Sep 2026

The view from the dugout

“We did not lose. Some weeks that is all you get, and I would rather have the point than not.” Ricardo Fernandes chose the glass-half-full version of 0‑0; the supporters left with the other one.

Squad14 Sep 2026

The formation has left Miguel Terceros behind

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

Boardroom7 Sep 2026

Window shuts: 24 in, 9 out at Yverdon

The deadline has passed and the squad is the squad. 24 arrived, 9 left, and everything else printed about this club last month was a rumour that stayed one.

Transfer targets7 Sep 2026

The paperwork begins on Idrissa Guèye

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

Market7 Sep 2026

William Le Pogam’s move to Stade Lausanne-Ouchy falls through

The deal that would have taken William Le Pogam to Stade Lausanne-Ouchy has collapsed at the last stage, and he reports back to Yverdon with a summer to forget and a season still to play. Nobody is saying which side walked away.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Anas Bakhat 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 targets7 Sep 2026

Austria Wien tell Yverdon: Marlon Mustapha is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

The dugout7 Sep 2026

The manager makes an example of Timo Königsmann

“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.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Ousmane Doumbia slips down the pecking order

The demotion a club never announces and a dressing room always notices. Ousmane Doumbia is further from the side than he was, and the reason will not be given until he asks.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Samba Só signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Samba Só and Yverdon agree another 4 years.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Words exchanged at Yverdon

Dejan Šorgić 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.
