Scapin is on his way
The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Novorizontino is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Patrick in a row with a teammate
It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Novorizontino this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

“I want to play”: Enzo Rocha speaks
“I respect the manager and I am not going to sit here and pretend I am happy.” It is the most common sentence in football and it has never once been the end of a story.
