The Yokohama F. Marinos Courier
Squad10 Aug 2026
98 days out for Jordy Croux after a fracture
A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. Yokohama F. Marinos will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.

Rubén Blanco keeps Yokohama F. Marinos in it on his own
Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 7 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.
Market10 Aug 2026
Yokohama F. Marinos turn down Gamba Osaka for Taiki Watanabe
The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.
Player ratings10 Aug 2026
Kei Chinen pops up at the right end — 7.63
7.63, 1 on the scoresheet, and the specific comedy of a back-four player celebrating like somebody who does this every week. He does not, and that is exactly why the ground reacted the way it did.
Market10 Aug 2026
Yokohama F. Marinos pay FC Tokyo $540.0K for a proper upgrade
FC Tokyo did not want to sell and the number is why they did. $540.0K for Everton Galdino, and the expectation that arrives with him is the kind no amount of settling-in period softens.
Transfer targets10 Aug 2026
An offer of $580.0K for Ryo Hatsuse
Yokohama F. Marinos have gone to Gamba Osaka with a bid, and the supporters have gone to the internet with an opinion about it. Whether either changes anything is up to the selling club.
Boardroom10 Aug 2026
Yokohama F. Marinos go back to the board over Tomoya Inukai
The number the board signed off was not enough. It has been asked again and raised its own offer to $38.9K — a club that wants Tomoya Inukai enough to be asked twice.

A falling-out at Yokohama F. Marinos
Rubén Blanco and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.
Transfer targets10 Aug 2026
Yokohama F. Marinos make their move for Tomoya Inukai
$36.0K on the table at Kashiwa Reysol. The manager wanted him, the board agreed a number, and the only voices still to be heard are the ones at the other club.
In brief
