The Cacereño Chronicle
The terraces23 Aug 2027
Supporters organise against the Cacereño board
A bad atmosphere can be waited out. A group of people meeting afterwards to decide what to do about it cannot, and everybody in the building knows which stage this is.
Match23 Aug 2027
Cacereño are in real trouble now
Position 20, 32 points, and a fixture list with fewer games left in it than excuses. The arithmetic is not cruel yet, but it has stopped being kind.

Hugo Rey damages knee ligaments — 35 days out
The words a physio says slowly. 35 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.
Transfer targets23 Aug 2027
Aleksa Purić will not be coming to Cacereño
Terms were offered and declined. Whether it was the wages, the role or the town, nobody at Atlético Madrid is saying, and nobody at Cacereño is enjoying the guessing.
Boardroom23 Aug 2027
Graduation day at Cacereño
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.

Racing Santander tell Cacereño: Giorgi Guliashvili is not for sale
The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Fer Pina falls out with a teammate over standards
The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

One of our own: Ricardo Pérez joins the Cacereño first team
Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Ricardo Pérez is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Cacereño promote Cristian Romero from within
The academy exists for exactly this morning. Cristian Romero 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.
