Uneasy
Squad23 Nov 2026
50 days on the announcement, and a year of quiet, unwatched rehabilitation behind it. Tacuarembo lose a player for a season; he loses something harder to name.
Market23 Nov 2026
Ian López has one foot out of the door
Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Tacuarembo they have already started talking about him in the past tense.
Squad23 Nov 2026
Mauro Estol and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

A row about effort at Tacuarembo
Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Álvaro San Emeterio was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.
Market23 Nov 2026
Every press conference now starts and ends the same way: with Pablo López’s future. The manager has run out of new ways to say nothing.
The dugout23 Nov 2026
Lucas Ramírez has become a man the manager trusts
Nobody at Tacuarembo 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.

Albion left with the points after a 1‑3 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.
The dugout10 Aug 2026
Mauro Estol 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.

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Daniel Gonzalez 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.

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Mathias Da Silva 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.
