Squad

Mauricio Martínez says Sarmiento went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Market

Diego Churín 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 Sarmiento can pretend not to have heard.

Market

Chacarita Juniors come back empty-handed

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

Market

Only the photograph left for Francisco Razzeto

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Francisco Razzeto will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Sarmiento the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Squad

Tempers go at Sarmiento

Javier Burrai 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.

Squad

Mauricio Martínez 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.

Market

Joel Godoy asks to leave Sarmiento

“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

Lucas Meza has one foot out of the door

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

Squad

Jhon Renteria is the real thing at 21

A season average of 7.11 at an age when most of his year group are still in the youth team. Sarmiento know what they have, and so, by now, does everybody else.

Squad

Javier Burrai 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 Sarmiento this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Words at Sarmiento training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Mauricio Martínez is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Jhon Renteria

Successful dribbles: 20. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Santiago Salle

“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.

Match

Rosario Central take the points off Sarmiento

Beaten 0‑1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Loan watch

Tomás Amado wants to come home

“I did not go to Tijuana to sit and watch. I want to come back to Sarmiento and fight for my place.” 1 appearances in 5 matches say the rest.

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Squad

Nicolás Pasquini breaks a bone — 88 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 88 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Squad

Jonatan Gómez says Sarmiento went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Boardroom

Agustín Seyral has agreed to leave Sarmiento for nothing

He will play here until the summer and then walk out of the door for free, having already signed elsewhere. Supporters will manage the first part of that sentence; it is the second they will struggle with.

Squad

At 21, Jhon Renteria is already the best thing here

An average of 7.13 in a first team he is several years too young for. Sarmiento have something, and by now the whole division has noticed.

Market

Agustín Seyral has one foot out of the door

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