From our football correspondent Uneasy

Market15 Nov 2027

Santiago Solari 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 Racing Club can pretend not to have heard.

Squad15 Nov 2027

Marco Di Cesare falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Squad15 Nov 2027

Gastón Martirena 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 Racing Club this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad15 Nov 2027

Lucas Alario stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Lucas Alario and Racing Club agree another 1 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

The dugout15 Nov 2027

Luis Romano 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 dugout15 Nov 2027

When it matters, Axel Guerra plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

Squad15 Nov 2027

International call for Duván Vergara

Duván Vergara joins up with his country. Racing Club lose him for the window and would like him back in one piece.

Market15 Nov 2027

Talks stall between Racing Club and Damián Adín

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

The dugout15 Nov 2027

Elías Torres 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.

Player ratings15 Feb 2027

Both of them Adrián Martínez's — 8.54

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.54, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Match13 Feb 2027

Racing Club see off Nueva Chicago

Three points for Racing Club, 2‑1 the final word against Nueva Chicago in a contest settled by the finer margins.

The dugout15 Feb 2027

No hiding place for Facundo Cambeses

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Facundo Cambeses, and the manager let it.

Squad15 Feb 2027

A row about effort at Racing Club

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

Player ratings15 Feb 2027

Ninety minutes of Duván Vergara at his very best

Marked 8.13. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Racing Club.

Squad15 Feb 2027

A falling-out at Racing Club

Gastón Lodico and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Loan watch15 Feb 2027

Thiago De Bellis has seen enough of Titanes Guanare

“I am grateful for the games, but I did not become a footballer to be somebody else's spare part.” He wants to be at Racing Club, and 0 appearances in 5 say he has earned the hearing.

Player ratings15 Feb 2027

Nobody could get near Matías Zaracho

Successful dribbles: 15. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Market15 Feb 2027

The Felipe San Juan conversation is coming

Everyone has stopped pretending: Deportes Limache will make the call about Felipe San Juan this week. Racing Club have a number in mind, and the number is not shy.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

The dugout8 Feb 2027

Matko Miljevic says Racing Club went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Player ratings8 Feb 2027

Vintage Adrián Martínez — 7.80

At 34 every good afternoon gets called a throwback, and this one was: 7.80, and nobody on the pitch better.

Match6 Feb 2027

4 matches without a win for Racing Club

The run now stands at 4, and the questions being asked around Racing Club are no longer polite ones.

Boardroom8 Feb 2027

Graduation day at Racing Club

5 boys move up, and somewhere in the building the people who coached them at twelve are quietly having the best morning of their working year. Nothing about this shows up in a result and it is why the academy exists.

Market8 Feb 2027

Luis Romano steps up from the Racing Club academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Luis Romano 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.

Market8 Feb 2027

Racing Club promote Enzo Marino from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Enzo Marino 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.

Market8 Feb 2027

Racing Club promote Gael Villalba from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Gael Villalba 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.

Market8 Feb 2027

One of our own: Daniel Russo joins the Racing Club first team

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

Squad8 Feb 2027

A row about effort at Racing Club

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