Market

Emanuele Bassi asks to leave Cavese

“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.

Squad

Tempers go at Cavese

Francesco Orlando 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.

Boardroom

141% of the income goes out in wages at Cavese

Every club in football pays most of what it earns to its players. Paying nearly all of it is a different arrangement, and it has ended the same way every time somebody has tried it.

Squad

Domenico Brancato signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Domenico Brancato commits to Cavese for another 3 years.

Market

The Valerio Boffelli question follows Cavese around

Every press conference now starts and ends the same way: with Valerio Boffelli’s future. The manager has run out of new ways to say nothing.

Market

The shop window has Raffaele Maria Di Costanzo in it

Cavese have let the market know Raffaele Maria Di Costanzo can be had. No price in the advert, but everyone in the trade knows roughly what it says.

Boardroom

The scrutiny sharpens at Cavese

Nobody upstairs has said anything, which is the loudest thing they could do. Results buy silence in this game; the account at Cavese is running low.

Market

Raffaele Maria Di Costanzo 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 Cavese can pretend not to have heard.

Squad

Giuseppe Fella signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Giuseppe Fella and Cavese agree another 2 years.

Squad

Francesco Orlando 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 Cavese this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Market

Cavese buy the years ahead of Joseph Olunga

He is 17, and the scouting reports agree on the only line that matters: the ceiling. Signings like this are lottery tickets written by professionals.

Boardroom

The numbers do not look good at Cavese

Wages have outrun income and the accountants have started attending meetings they used to send apologies to. Ambition comes second in a season like this.
