Squad

A fracture rules Roberto Silva out for 17 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Argentino de Quilmes will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

The dugout

Tomás Gaitán frozen out at Argentino de Quilmes

This is not rotation. Tomás Gaitán has not been in the manager's plans for some time, and nobody at Argentino de Quilmes is pretending otherwise.

Player ratings

A defender's goal wins it for Argentino de Quilmes — 7.85

1 for Román Barreto, marked 7.85, and a centre-half's name in the part of the report he normally only reaches by mistake. He will not be allowed to forget it in the dressing room for a month.

The dugout

Tomás Jakos: 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.” Argentino de Quilmes have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Squad

Facundo Lando signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Facundo Lando commits to Argentino de Quilmes for another 4 years.

Squad

Words exchanged at Argentino de Quilmes

Leandro Guzmán 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.

Squad

Words at Argentino de Quilmes training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Facundo Lando 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.

Transfer targets

Rosario Central tell Argentino de Quilmes: Santiago Segovia 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.

Loan watch

Ezequiel Madariaga wants to come home

“I did not go to Antofagasta to sit and watch. I want to come back to Argentino de Quilmes and fight for my place.” 6 appearances in 29 matches say the rest.

In brief

Back issues

Squad

Roberto Silva breaks a bone — 24 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 24 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Transfer targets

Emanuel Bonda’s move to Argentino de Quilmes collapses on the table

Fee agreed, terms agreed, and a scan that said otherwise. He goes back to Argentinos Juniors; Argentino de Quilmes go back to the market; and both will insist there is no story here.

Boardroom

Deadline passes with 1 signed and 2 gone

That is the business done at Argentino de Quilmes until the window opens again. Whether it was enough will be answered on Saturdays rather than in a column, and the first Saturday is close.

Squad

Tempers go at Argentino de Quilmes

Leandro Guzmán 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.

Boardroom

Tiago Goncalvez will join Argentino de Quilmes for nothing

The paperwork is done long before the player is. Tiago Goncalvez has agreed terms to come here when his current deal runs out, which means Argentino de Quilmes have spent a summer's transfer budget on a phone call.

Squad

Words at Argentino de Quilmes training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Enzo Zárate 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.

Transfer targets

Door shut on Nico López

Argentino de Quilmes asked and Racing Club said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

The dugout

No hiding place for Ramiro García

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

Match

Argentino de Quilmes share the spoils with Dock Sud

A 1‑1 draw with Dock Sud leaves the dressing room somewhere between relief and regret.

Market

Mauro Gómez puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Argentino de Quilmes, and it is not being withdrawn.

Market

Argentino de Quilmes say no — this time

The offer from Marco 09 for Agustín Nasello was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Squad

A falling-out at Argentino de Quilmes

Franco Sosa and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Squad

Adrián Portillo gets the move he always wanted

Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. Adrián Portillo has just signed for Argentino de Quilmes, and for once the answer mattered.

Boardroom

3 academy graduates step up at Argentino de Quilmes

Senior shirt numbers handed to boys the coaches have known since they were twelve. Most will not make it and all of them have already done the hard part.

Squad

Enzo Zárate 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.

The terraces

Argentino de Quilmes supporters have found a favourite in Julián Alveira

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 23-year-old it feels ownership of. Julián Alveira has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

The dugout

Enzo Zárate gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Market

Roberto Silva steps up from the Argentino de Quilmes academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Roberto Silva has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.
