Squad

A knee injury of the worst kind for Brahim Youssouf

116 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. AS Algoy lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Squad

88 days out for Djibrine Adoum after a fracture

A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. AS Algoy will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.

Market

AS Algoy turn down Renaissance for Saleh Mbainaissem

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Market

Moussa Moustapha asks to leave AS Algoy

“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

Words exchanged at AS Algoy

Brahim Youssouf 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

Words at AS Algoy training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Ahmat Djimet 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.

Squad

Brahim Youssouf damages knee ligaments — 123 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 123 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Squad

A fracture rules Djibrine Adoum out for 95 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason AS Algoy will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Market

Foullah Edifice come back empty-handed

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

Market

Issa Ndoram 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 The request is on a desk at AS Algoy, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad

A falling-out at AS Algoy

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

Transfer targets

AS Algoy rebuffed over Madaoua Tchiva

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

Squad

a squad player 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

No place for Djibrine Adoum in the plan

“The manager did not use many words, and he did not need to.” Djibrine Adoum has his answer from AS Algoy; what he does with it is the next window’s story.

Market

The Saleh Moustapha question follows AS Algoy around

Every press conference now starts and ends the same way: with Saleh Moustapha’s future. The manager has run out of new ways to say nothing.

In brief
