Market

Tammeka come back empty-handed

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

Market

Marek Mets 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 The request is on a desk at Sillamae Kalev, and it is not being withdrawn.

Market

Only the photograph left for Liliu Kallaste

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Liliu Kallaste will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Sillamae Kalev the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Transfer targets

Sillamae Kalev bid $43.0K for Sander Alamaa

The offer went to Flora this week and it is theirs to answer. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loud the door closes.

Squad

Words exchanged at Sillamae Kalev

Martin Zenjov 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.

Transfer targets

Door shut on Ilja Moseichuk

Sillamae Kalev asked and Kuban said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Market

Sillamae Kalev sell Frank Marin for $2.0K

Frank Marin has left for Narva Trans in a $2.0K deal. The accountants are pleased; the supporters are less certain.

Squad

Markus Baranov 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.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Liliu Teniste

“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.

Market

Karl Sappinen 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 Sillamae Kalev can pretend not to have heard.

Market

Sillamae Kalev say no — this time

The offer from Levadia for Silver Antonov 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.

Market

Liliu Kallaste agrees terms with Tulevik

The clubs have settled the fee and he has settled his wages. What remains is a medical and a photograph, and around Sillamae Kalev people have started saying his name in the past tense.

Squad

Tempers go at Sillamae Kalev

Martin Zenjov 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.

Market

Frank Marin attracts admirers

The name of Frank Marin has come up in conversations Sillamae Kalev were not part of. Nothing formal, nothing signed — but nothing about it accidental either.

Squad

Liliu Teniste stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Liliu Teniste and Sillamae Kalev agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

The dugout

Martin Zenjov has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Sillamae Kalev will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.

Squad

Idalécio Dias 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.

Squad

No place for Idalécio Dias in the new shape

He is not being dropped. There is simply nowhere in the formation Sillamae Kalev are playing to put a man who does what he does, which is a harder thing to be told than any team sheet.

In brief
