Rosario Central to lose Lorenzo Fernández for free
There is no worse way to lose a footballer. Lorenzo Fernández has pre-agreed a move away, which means every appearance between now and June is made by a man the club can no longer sell, and somebody upstairs will be asked why the contract was allowed to get here.

Lorenzo Fernández is on his way
The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Rosario Central is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Rosario Central promote Valentino Ferrari from within

Leo steps up from the Rosario Central academy
There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Leo 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.
In brief
- Squad Agustín Sández signs a new deal
- The dugout No hiding place for Alexis Soto
- Squad Rosario Central are still strangers to each other
