Market

Miguel Prado puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Ourense CF, and it is not being withdrawn.

Market

Ourense CF say no — this time

The offer from Mirandés for David Rabadán was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Squad

Ramón Enríquez 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 Ourense CF this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Transfer targets

Door shut on Arnau Ortiz

Ourense CF asked and Atlético Madrid said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Squad

A row about effort at Ourense CF

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Tropi was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Axel Arcos

“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.

Squad

Axel Arcos has had enough of the bench

“I did not come here to warm up in front of people.” He is out of contract eventually, he is old enough to count the weeks, and Ourense CF will have to give him a reason to stay or an exit.

The dugout

Hugo Sanz gets picked when it counts

Every manager keeps a short list in his head of the men he wants on the pitch when the stakes rise, and it is never published. The team sheets for the big afternoons say Hugo Sanz is on it.

The dugout

Marcelo Vaca 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 Ourense CF, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Market

Marcelo Vaca puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Ourense CF, and it is not being withdrawn.

Market

Adri Pérez has said yes to Burgos

The last thing about a transfer that is still about the player is his signature on his own terms, and it is there. Ourense CF have lost him in all but the paperwork.

Transfer targets

Sergio Cubero will not be coming to Ourense CF

Terms were offered and declined. Whether it was the wages, the role or the town, nobody at Eibar is saying, and nobody at Ourense CF is enjoying the guessing.

Squad

Words exchanged at Ourense CF

Sergio Benito and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Squad

Byron Torres gets the move he always wanted

Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. Byron Torres has just signed for Ourense CF, and for once the answer mattered.

Squad

Words at Ourense CF training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Ramón Enríquez 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

Real Sociedad tell Ourense CF: Egoitz Arana 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.

Transfer targets

A loan move for Sergio Cubero is in the works

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

Transfer targets

A loan move for Pepe Sánchez is in the works

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