Market13 Jan 2031

Juan David Viáfara 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 Bogota can pretend not to have heard.

Words at Bogota training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Cristián Mosquera 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.

Bogota rebuffed over Agustín Moreira

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Millonarios have kept their man, and Bogota go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Market13 Jan 2031

Bogota promote Alejandro Sanchez from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Alejandro Sanchez has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

One of our own: Andres Mejia joins the Bogota first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Andres Mejia is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Santiago Valencia steps up from the Bogota academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Santiago Valencia has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

Words exchanged at Bogota

Brian Martinez 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.

Jet Lee Espín 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.

Manuel Bacca wants out of the dugout

“I did not sign to watch. Nobody does.” The oldest complaint in the game, and Bogota will have to answer it with minutes or with a move.

Alejandro Aguilar is on his way

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

A row about effort at Bogota

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

The mood at Bogota has turned into something else

Supporters who sing when it goes badly are supporters. Supporters who gather afterwards are a problem, and everybody inside the building knows which of the two this now is.

Mauro Ortiz agrees terms with La Equidad

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

Sergio Román is a medical away from Bogota

The deal with America de Cali is done in every sense but the one that puts him on the pitch. Nothing goes wrong at this stage, except on the occasions when it does.

Bogota lose Pablo Mina

40 days, the medical staff say, and medical staff are optimists by profession. The team sheet will look wrong without him.

Junior tell Bogota: Jorge Sánchez 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.

Squad31 Dec 2029

Manuel Bacca signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Manuel Bacca and Bogota agree another 3 years.

The dugout31 Dec 2029

The manager makes an example of Jorge Rodriguez

“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.
