Door shut on Marco Sportiello
Granada asked and Atalanta said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Jhon Lucumí 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. Granada know it, and so does everybody who watches him.

Granada try to borrow Tomás Galván
River Plate have been asked whether they would lend him. Loans are agreed quickly or not at all, and this one will be one or the other by the weekend.

Granada say no to the training-ground money
The plan went upstairs and came back down. Nothing about that will make a headline anywhere else, and everybody who works at the training ground will remember it for years.

Every shape has positions in it and this one does not have his. Granada will either change the shape, change his job, or change his club, and he is waiting to hear which.

Nobody sells a season ticket on a signing like this. Every manager who has been through a bad October wants one anyway, and Granada have gone and got theirs early.

Numbers do not stay secret in a dressing room. He is not asking for more than he is worth; he is asking why somebody beside him is worth more, and Granada have no good answer.
