Jaime Acosta gets the move he always wanted
Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. Jaime Acosta has just signed for Deportes Tolima, and for once the answer mattered.

Hugo Benítez turns down Deportes Tolima
The clubs had agreed and the player had not. A snub, and a public one: Olimpia keep him, and the supporters here are left wondering what he had heard about the place.
Match10 Jul 2027
The wait goes on for Deportes Tolima
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.

Gali Balanta signs for Independiente Medellin while still at Deportes Tolima
The rules permit it and it stings anyway. Gali Balanta has agreed terms with Independiente Medellin for the summer, and until then he pulls on this shirt as a player who has already chosen his next one.

A falling-out at Deportes Tolima
Luis Sánchez and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Jaime Acosta is a Deportes Tolima player
The fee is $100.0K, the contract is signed, and the argument about whether he is worth it can begin. Barranquilla drove a hard bargain; time will say who won it.

Door shut on Sankara Karamoko
Deportes Tolima asked and Wolfsberger AC said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

A muscle injury and 15 days out for Erik Álvarez
The most common injury in the game and the most rushed back from. Deportes Tolima will quote 15 days and will be careful with it, because the second one is always worse than the first.
Match10 Jul 2027
Deportes Tolima refuse to lose to Junior
A point taken on 88 minutes is worth exactly one point and considerably more than that to a dressing room. This side does not stop, which is a reputation worth more than the result.
In brief
- Transfer targets Deportes Tolima ask about Marlon Mustapha
- Transfer targets Deportes Tolima try to borrow Szymon Włodarczyk
- Squad Deportes Tolima are still strangers to each other
