Market

Victor Rondon 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 The request is on a desk at Atletico Venezuela, and it is not being withdrawn.

Market

Luis Rincon is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Atletico Venezuela is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Squad

Words exchanged at Atletico Venezuela

Fernando Ferraresi 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.

Match

Atletico Venezuela come up short against Zulia

Zulia left with the points after a 0‑1 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Player ratings

The game went through Sergio Gonzalez — 7.19

Marked 7.19 on 9 actions at both ends of the pitch. Midfielders like this get described as unspectacular by people who have never tried to play against one.

The dugout

Ignacio Tinelli gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Squad

Iván Cetrini signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Iván Cetrini commits to Atletico Venezuela for another 1 years.

The dugout

The manager’s verdict

“That is on me. I pick the team and I picked wrong.” Managers say that when they mean it and when they need to be seen to, and after 0‑1 Sergio Rincon left the room before anybody could ask which.

The dugout

Ignacio Bessone asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

Squad

César Aponte breaks a bone — 121 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 121 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Squad

Fernando Ferraresi 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 Atletico Venezuela this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Words at Atletico Venezuela training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Juan Romero 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.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad

Gabriel Machis 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

Tempers go at Atletico Venezuela

Carlos Alemán 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.

Squad

The formation has left César Aponte behind

Every shape has positions in it and this one does not have his. Atletico Venezuela will either change the shape, change his job, or change his club, and he is waiting to hear which.

Squad

A step back for Carlos Cordova at Atletico Venezuela

Somebody has moved past him. It is not a dropping and it is worse than one, because a dropping is about a Saturday and this is about where he stands.

The dugout

Sergio Gonzalez 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 Atletico Venezuela, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Market

The Ignacio Bessone story refuses to die

It has been denied twice and printed three times, which is the usual arithmetic. Until Ignacio Bessone signs something — a contract at Atletico Venezuela or anywhere else — this column belongs to him.
