The NK Krka Sentinel

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad

Alae Hadaji damages knee ligaments — 102 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 102 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Boardroom

NK Krka spell it out for Timi Kurtovic

The board’s statement ran to three sentences and one of them mentioned results. Timi Kurtovic has managed long enough to translate: win soon, or the next statement is shorter.

Squad

Luka Čadež signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Luka Čadež commits to NK Krka for another 4 years.

Squad

Andraž Lipec 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 NK Krka this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Words at NK Krka training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Matej Pučko 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.

Market

NK Krka buy the years ahead of Marco Bolzon

He is 20, and the scouting reports agree on the only line that matters: the ceiling. Signings like this are lottery tickets written by professionals.

Market

NK Krka buy the years ahead of Tim Gravenberch

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

NK Krka pull $1.1M back off the table

The money that was there in the summer is not there now. Nobody upstairs calls this a change of ambition, and everybody downstairs reads it as one.

Market

The Marko Brkić question follows NK Krka around

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

In brief

Back issues

The Heerenveen Courier

30 Aug 2027
From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad

A knee injury of the worst kind for Ringo Meerveld

38 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Heerenveen lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Squad

Žan Celar: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Heerenveen have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Squad

Tempers go at Heerenveen

Ringo Meerveld 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.

Squad

Real improvement from Liam Vos at Heerenveen

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Liam Vos is 18, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Ringo Meerveld

Successful dribbles: 21. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Market

A long bet from Heerenveen on Jay Amour

He is 20, and nobody at Heerenveen signed him for this season. Deals like this are judged in four years, by people who may not still be in the building.

Match

Heerenveen and Vitesse cancel each other out

Nil-nil, and few chances worth the name. Vitesse came to defend and left with exactly what they came for.

Market

The Vasilis Zagaritis question follows Heerenveen around

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

Player ratings

An afternoon Žan Celar will want back

Marked 5.63. Nothing he attempted worked and by the hour mark he had stopped attempting much, which is the part a manager notices rather than the mistakes.

In brief
