Transfer targets24 Aug 2026
An offer of $18.7M for Konstantin Tyukavin
Avellino have gone to Dinamo Moscow with a bid, and the supporters have gone to the internet with an opinion about it. Whether either changes anything is up to the selling club.

Avellino rebuffed over Konstantin Tyukavin
Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Dinamo Moscow have kept their man, and Avellino go back to a list with one name crossed off it.
Squad24 Aug 2026
Tempers go at Avellino
Armando Izzo 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.
Boardroom24 Aug 2026
2 academy graduates step up at Avellino
Senior shirt numbers handed to boys the coaches have known since they were twelve. Most will not make it and all of them have already done the hard part.
Squad24 Aug 2026
Words at Avellino training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Kermit Mokotjo 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.

One of our own: Roberto Fiorentino joins the Avellino first team
Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Roberto Fiorentino is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.
Market24 Aug 2026
Manuel Bianco steps up from the Avellino academy
There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Manuel Bianco 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.

Kermit Mokotjo has outgrown this division
There is a level at which a footballer stops being tested and starts being contained, and he reached it some time ago. Avellino know it, and so does everybody who watches him.
Looking ahead24 Aug 2026
Marco Sala faces his old club
Virtus Entella next, and one man in the Avellino dressing room knows their training ground better than his own. The reception will tell him what they thought of him.
In brief
- Squad A season on the outside for Kermit Mokotjo
- Boardroom Avellino spend where nobody can see it
- Looking ahead Avellino host Virtus Entella
