Fabian Perez says Aguilas Doradas went back on their word
“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.
Player ratings24 Jan 2028
A brace, and Patricio Moyano takes the afternoon — 8.16
There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Patricio Moyano provided it, and the 8.16 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Tempers go at Aguilas Doradas
Patricio Moyano 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 Jan 2028
Graduation day at Aguilas Doradas
5 boys move up, and somewhere in the building the people who coached them at twelve are quietly having the best morning of their working year. Nothing about this shows up in a result and it is why the academy exists.

Aguilas Doradas find a way past Junior
Junior made Aguilas Doradas work for it, but the scoreboard read 2‑1 at the end and the table does not ask how.

One of their own: Fabian Perez
He is 23 and the ground already sings his name, which is a thing that happens to local boys and almost never to signings. Everything from here is measured against an affection he did nothing to earn except be from here.

No hiding place for Alan Pereira
“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Alan Pereira, and the manager let it.
Match22 Jan 2028
Aguilas Doradas end the wait against Junior
It had gone 5 games. The players did not celebrate like men who had won a match; they celebrated like men who had been let out of something.

Aguilas Doradas promote Brian Herrera from within
The academy exists for exactly this morning. Brian Herrera has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.
