Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Ramiro Martínez will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Quilmes the goodbyes have quietly begun.

The wait goes on for Quilmes
4 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

4 matches, no goals, and a training ground that has tried everything. It will end — droughts always do — but nobody at Quilmes can tell you which week it ends in.

Agustín Lavezzi knocks on the manager's door
“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Quilmes, and both men came out saying it was fine.
