Boardroom

Police Union put Omar El Mohamady on notice

The board have said in public what they had been saying in private. Results between now and the next meeting decide it, and everybody in the building knows the arithmetic.

Squad

Belal Ateya is the young player of the season

Not a month, not a run of form — a whole season of being the best 20-year-old anybody in this division could put on a pitch. This is the honour that gets mentioned for the rest of his career.

Squad

Belal Ateya 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 Police Union this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

A move Tiago Fernandes would have made for nothing

There is a version of every career where the player ends up somewhere he chose rather than somewhere that chose him. Tiago Fernandes is living that version at Police Union, and it tends to show in the first month.

Market

Eyes on Rui Dabó again

The phone has started ringing about Rui Dabó again, and this time the name on the line is Ghazl El Mahalla. Police Union are listening politely and promising nothing.

Squad

Tiago Fernandes signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Tiago Fernandes commits to Police Union for another 2 years.

Market

Police Union sign Amr El Mohamady, one for the future

Amr El Mohamady is 19, and Police Union have signed him for the player he will be rather than the one he is. The first team can wait; the point of a deal like this is the years it buys.

Market

Police Union buy the years ahead of Mandla Mkhize

He is 19, and the scouting reports agree on the only line that matters: the ceiling. Signings like this are lottery tickets written by professionals.

Market

Police Union sign Harun Kagere, one for the future

Harun Kagere is 18, and Police Union have signed him for the player he will be rather than the one he is. The first team can wait; the point of a deal like this is the years it buys.

In brief
