From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad

ABC count the cost of losing Rodolfo Castro

53 days, the scan says, and scans are kinder than reality. The fixtures in that window have just become somebody else’s job.

Squad

Edson signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Edson and ABC agree another 2 years.

Market

Only the photograph left for Régis Potiguar

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Régis Potiguar will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around ABC the goodbyes have quietly begun.

From our football correspondent Crisis

Market

Caike asks to leave ABC

“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.

Squad

Lucas Souza 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 ABC this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

No hiding place for Gilberto

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Gilberto, and the manager let it.

Squad

Matheus Alves keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” ABC may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Squad

Lucas Souza 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 ABC this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

ABC lose João Pedro

47 days, the medical staff say, and medical staff are optimists by profession. The team sheet will look wrong without him.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad

Randerson: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” ABC have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Market

Lucas Marques 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 ABC can pretend not to have heard.

Squad

Tempers go at ABC

Lucas Souza 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

ABC lose Luiz Fernando

40 days, the medical staff say, and medical staff are optimists by profession. The team sheet will look wrong without him.

Squad

Lucas Luan out for 15 days

The medical room confirms 15 days on the sidelines for Lucas Luan, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

Market

The Esquerdinha talk will not go away

Another week, another link, another denial nobody quite believes. ABC know the market decides these things, not the back pages — but the back pages are louder.

In brief

  • Market ABC shop where it costs nothing
  • Market Talks stall between ABC and Caike
