The dugout17 Apr 2028

Abbe Rehn says Považská Bystrica 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.

Squad17 Apr 2028

Kabeer Jinadu in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Považská Bystrica this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Boardroom17 Apr 2028

Belts tighten at Považská Bystrica

The accounts are being read more closely than the results. Wages before ambition is the order of business now, and the manager has been told so.

Squad17 Apr 2028

Words at Považská Bystrica training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Matúš Capko 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.

Boardroom17 Apr 2028

115% of the income goes out in wages at Považská Bystrica

Every club in football pays most of what it earns to its players. Paying nearly all of it is a different arrangement, and it has ended the same way every time somebody has tried it.

The dugout17 Apr 2028

Tomáš Hák knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Považská Bystrica, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Market17 Apr 2028

Kabeer Jinadu placed on the list

Považská Bystrica have made Kabeer Jinadu available for transfer. A career at this club is over in all but paperwork.

Market17 Apr 2028

The Jakub Tancík question follows Považská Bystrica around

Every press conference now starts and ends the same way: with Jakub Tancík’s future. The manager has run out of new ways to say nothing.

The dugout17 Apr 2028

The manager comes out for Kabeer Jinadu

Public backing, and the sort that costs a manager something if it turns out to be wrong. Kabeer Jinadu has been told in front of everybody that the shirt is his.

Squad27 Mar 2028

The knee: Andrej Benes out for 21 days

21 days on the announcement, and a year of quiet, unwatched rehabilitation behind it. Považská Bystrica lose a player for a season; he loses something harder to name.

Market27 Mar 2028

Only the photograph left for Matúš Spišák

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Matúš Spišák will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Považská Bystrica the goodbyes have quietly begun.

The dugout27 Mar 2028

Jakub Tancík frozen out at Považská Bystrica

This is not rotation. Jakub Tancík has not been in the manager's plans for some time, and nobody at Považská Bystrica is pretending otherwise.

Squad27 Mar 2028

Words exchanged at Považská Bystrica

Adrián Knurovský 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.

Squad27 Mar 2028

Words at Považská Bystrica training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Matúš Capko 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.

The dugout27 Mar 2028

Marek Beňadik knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Považská Bystrica, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Market27 Mar 2028

No place for Vladi Laskov in the plan

“The manager did not use many words, and he did not need to.” Vladi Laskov has his answer from Považská Bystrica; what he does with it is the next window’s story.

The dugout27 Mar 2028

No hiding place for Giacomo Bernabè

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

Squad27 Mar 2028

“I want to play”: Maxence Nsiloulou speaks

“I respect the manager and I am not going to sit here and pretend I am happy.” It is the most common sentence in football and it has never once been the end of a story.

Transfer targets19 Jul 2027

$1.2M settles it between the clubs for Adam Tučný

MFK Ruzomberok have accepted the money. What Považská Bystrica do not yet have is the man, and between here and the photograph is a conversation about wages that both sides are dreading.

Squad19 Jul 2027

Words exchanged at Považská Bystrica

Kabeer Jinadu 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.

Boardroom19 Jul 2027

5 academy graduates step up at Považská Bystrica

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.

Transfer targets19 Jul 2027

Slovan Bratislava tell Považská Bystrica: Robert Tománek 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.

Squad19 Jul 2027

Matúš Capko 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.

Market19 Jul 2027

Andrej Benes steps up from the Považská Bystrica academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Andrej Benes 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.

Market19 Jul 2027

Dominik Duris steps up from the Považská Bystrica academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Dominik Duris 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.

Považská Bystrica promote Erik Hubocan from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Erik Hubocan 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.
