Boardroom

Persijap part company with Fachri Putra

The statement thanked him for his efforts and wished him well, in that order and in about that many words. The search begins immediately.

Boardroom

Rachmat Irawan steps up at Persijap for now

“Somebody picks the team on Saturday. This week it is me, and that is as far as I have thought.” No promises were made in either direction, which is how these usually begin.

Market

Only the photograph left for Diogo Brito

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Diogo Brito will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Persijap the goodbyes have quietly begun.

The dugout

Tiago: 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.” Persijap have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Boardroom

Window shuts: 8 in, 2 out at Persijap

The deadline has passed and the squad is the squad. 8 arrived, 2 left, and everything else printed about this club last month was a rumour that stayed one.

Boardroom

Persijap to lose Diogo Brito for free

There is no worse way to lose a footballer. Diogo Brito has pre-agreed a move away, which means every appearance between now and June is made by a man the club can no longer sell, and somebody upstairs will be asked why the contract was allowed to get here.

Squad

Tempers go at Persijap

Tiri 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

Words at Persijap training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Iker Guarrotxena 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

Time is catching up with Borja Herrera

Everybody at Persijap saw it before anybody said it, which is how this always goes. At 36 the decline is real and measurable — 3 points — and the only question left is how the club handles somebody it owes a great deal to.

In brief
