Marked for Aimar Sánchez

Squad27 Sep 2027

A fracture rules Álex Muñoz out for 109 days

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

Squad27 Sep 2027

Aimar Sánchez damages knee ligaments — 21 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 21 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.

Match25 Sep 2027

No mercy from Almería

Valladolid will want this one forgotten quickly: 3‑0, every duel lost, and a long ride home. Almería were ruthless in the way good sides are ruthless.

Player ratings27 Sep 2027

Both of them Miguel De la Fuente's — 8.74

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.74, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Squad27 Sep 2027

A falling-out at Almería

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

Squad27 Sep 2027

A row about effort at Almería

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and André Horta was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

The dugout27 Sep 2027

Almería keep their word to Nico Melamed

Clubs make promises constantly and the page usually only hears about them when they are broken. This one was honoured, and the dressing room noticed that faster than any supporter did.

The dugout27 Sep 2027

Fernando Gutiérrez has his say

“We earned that. I asked them for a reaction and I got one, and now I want the same again on Saturday.” Fernando Gutiérrez on a 3‑0 afternoon that pleased him more than he was prepared to show.

Market27 Sep 2027

Still no ink between Almería and Marcos Luna

“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at Almería, another week without a signature from Marcos Luna.

Squad20 Sep 2027

117 days out for Álex Muñoz after a fracture

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

Squad20 Sep 2027

Aimar Sánchez damages knee ligaments — 29 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 29 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.

The dugout20 Sep 2027

Jorge Pulido keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Almería may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Squad20 Sep 2027

Words at Almería training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. André Horta 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.

The dugout20 Sep 2027

No hiding place for Léo Baptistão

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Léo Baptistão, and the manager let it.

Squad20 Sep 2027

7 new faces, and Almería are still learning each other

A squad rebuilt inside one window pays for it in a currency nobody budgets for. The football is not worse than the sum of the players; it is worse than the sum of the players who have played together before.

Player ratings20 Sep 2027

Sergio Arribas was the difference for Almería

Marked 7.49. Ask anyone leaving the ground what settled it and you will get one name, which is the only award that has ever really counted.

The dugout20 Sep 2027

The form table has caught Adrián Embarba

Somebody else has been better, the manager has said so with a team sheet, and there is no argument to be had. He will get the shirt back the only way it can be got back.

Market20 Sep 2027

Talks stall between Almería and Brian Cipenga

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

From our football correspondent Steady

Squad13 Sep 2027

A fracture rules Álex Muñoz out for 125 days

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

Transfer targets13 Sep 2027

No deal for Bogdan Popov at that price

Almería offered $50.7M; Pescara said it was not close. The manager will be told the money is still there for the right player, which is what managers are told.

Squad13 Sep 2027

The knee: Aimar Sánchez out for 37 days

37 days on the announcement, and a year of quiet, unwatched rehabilitation behind it. Almería lose a player for a season; he loses something harder to name.

The dugout13 Sep 2027

Léo Baptistão: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Almería have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Market13 Sep 2027

Andrés Fernández asks to leave Almería

“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.

The dugout13 Sep 2027

Sergio Arribas frozen out at Almería

This is not rotation. Sergio Arribas has not been in the manager's plans for some time, and nobody at Almería is pretending otherwise.

Squad13 Sep 2027

Tempers go at Almería

Daijiro Chirino 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.

Transfer targets13 Sep 2027

Elche tell Almería: Buba Sangaré is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Match11 Sep 2027

Nico Melamed the difference as Almería beat Málaga

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Nico Melamed. 1‑0 against Málaga, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

In brief
