Squad

Leomar Mosquera 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 Trujillanos this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

A row about effort at Trujillanos

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

The dugout

No hiding place for Rodolfo Fontes

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

The dugout

The manager makes Matheus Aluísio a promise

Nothing in writing and nothing in public: a word about playing time, given face to face at Trujillanos. The team sheets over the next month will show whether it was worth having.

Market

Trujillanos put Matheus Aluísio up for sale

The list is a quiet document with a loud meaning. Matheus Aluísio may talk to anybody who asks, and everybody at the club understands what that means.

Squad

Pablo Martínez finally belongs at Trujillanos

The language has come, the shrug has gone, and he argues in training like a man who expects to be here next year. None of it shows up on a fee and all of it shows up on the pitch.

Market

Agustín Araujo sold, and an era ends

$1.8M from Caracas for Agustín Araujo. Money is money, but the dressing room has lost the man it looked to.

The terraces

Trujillanos sell a favourite for $1.8M

The accountants will call it good business and they will be right, which is not the point anybody outside the boardroom is making. Agustín Araujo was one of the reasons people came, and $1.8M does not replace that by itself.

Market

Víctor Vega asks to leave Trujillanos

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Transfer targets

Roberth Patiño due for a Trujillanos medical

Everything agreed with Deportivo La Guaira, everything agreed with the player; a doctor is the only person left to persuade. The photograph is a day or two away.

Squad

Tempers go at Trujillanos

Fabricio Díaz 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.

Market

Trujillanos sell Murilo Camara for $380.0K

Murilo Camara has left for Deportivo Tachira in a $380.0K deal. The accountants are pleased; the supporters are less certain.

Match

A bad afternoon for Trujillanos against Titanes Guanare

0‑1 to Titanes Guanare, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Squad

Words at Trujillanos training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Cristian Cruz 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.

Squad

David Arango out for 15 days

The medical room confirms 15 days on the sidelines for David Arango, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

In brief

  • The dugout The manager’s verdict
  • The dugout The manager makes an example of Íker Blanco
  • Squad The formation has left Alejandro Hermes behind
