A fracture rules Felipe Zenobio out for 55 days
Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Tigre will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

No end in sight to Tigre's wait for a win
9 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Tigre has to find a result from somewhere.

Terms done: Alfio Oviedo is going
Fee agreed, wages agreed, and Villa San Carlos waiting with a shirt. Nobody at Tigre is pretending otherwise, and the supporters have stopped asking whether and started asking when.

Alfio Oviedo puts it in writing
“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Tigre, and it is not being withdrawn.

Bautista Chitarroni: 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.” Tigre have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.
Transfer targets7 Feb 2028
Tigre bid $450.0K for Patricio Albornoz
The offer went to Instituto this week and it is theirs to answer. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loud the door closes.

Alan Barrionuevo 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 Tigre this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Ignacio Russo 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.
In brief
- Match Tigre come up short against Racing Club
- Market Tigre promote Leonardo Iglesias from within
- Market Tigre promote Hernán Rey from within
