The terraces

IF Gnistan sell a favourite for $690.0K

The accountants will call it good business and they will be right, which is not the point anybody outside the boardroom is making. Ramilson Almeida was one of the reasons people came, and $690.0K does not replace that by itself.

Transfer targets

Ludwig Małachowski Thorell due for a IF Gnistan medical

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

Squad

Rachide Gnanou wants to go home

“I have tried. I have really tried, and every day I wake up in the wrong place.” Nobody at IF Gnistan can coach that out of a man, and nobody there is pretending to.

Squad

Evgeny Bashkirov wants one last season at home

Every long career reaches the week the last one is thought about. He would like it to be where he started, and IF Gnistan know now that the thought has arrived.

Market

IF Gnistan sell Ramilson Almeida for $690.0K

Ramilson Almeida has left for Ekenäs IF in a $690.0K deal. The accountants are pleased; the supporters are less certain.

Squad

Tempers go at IF Gnistan

Rachide Gnanou 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

Words at IF Gnistan training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Edmund Arko-Mensah 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.

Transfer targets

Catanzaro tell IF Gnistan: Samuel Giovane 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 dugout

When it matters, Edmund Arko-Mensah plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

Market

$290.0K — a new record at IF Gnistan

No footballer has ever cost this club more, and the number will be read out every time he misplaces a pass for the next two years.

Market

Eyes on Otto Hannula again

The phone has started ringing about Otto Hannula again, and this time the name on the line is KuPS. IF Gnistan are listening politely and promising nothing.

Squad

A falling-out at IF Gnistan

Rachide Gnanou and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

The terraces

IF Gnistan spend $290.0K on the signing the town wanted

It is the rarest sequence in football: supporters ask for something, and the club goes and does it. $290.0K for José Müller, and for one week nobody is complaining about anything.

Transfer targets

IF Gnistan rebuffed over Justus Ojanen

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. FC Lahti have kept their man, and IF Gnistan go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Squad

Marcelo Costa wants to go home

“I have tried. I have really tried, and every day I wake up in the wrong place.” Nobody at IF Gnistan can coach that out of a man, and nobody there is pretending to.

Transfer targets

IF Gnistan ask about Marius Söderbäck

A loan enquiry to Kalmar FF: cover, or a look at somebody the club cannot afford to buy yet. Either way the answer will come back inside the week.

Transfer targets

A loan move for Alexander Simmelhack is in the works

IF Gnistan have made the call to Silkeborg. No fee, a share of the wages, and a spare shirt in the position where the squad has been thinnest all season.

Market

A long bet from IF Gnistan on Gabriel Rasho

He is 19, and nobody at IF Gnistan signed him for this season. Deals like this are judged in four years, by people who may not still be in the building.
