Words exchanged at Aiglons
Yannick Saleh and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Aiglons asked and Stars Jeunes Talents said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

A loan move for Mahamat Djimet is in the works
Aiglons have made the call to AS Etat Major. No fee, a share of the wages, and a spare shirt in the position where the squad has been thinnest all season.

Marius Haroun falls out with a teammate over standards
