Market

Ignacio Sabatini asks to leave Gimnasia y Esgrima

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Market

Nicolás Ferreyra has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Gimnasia y Esgrima they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Squad

Words exchanged at Gimnasia y Esgrima

Ulises Sánchez 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

Luca Rodríguez signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Luca Rodríguez commits to Gimnasia y Esgrima for another 4 years.

The dugout

No hiding place for Nicolás Romano

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

The dugout

Felipe San Juan asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

Squad

Germán Guiffrey breaks a bone — 54 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 54 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Market

Facundo Lencioni 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 The request is on a desk at Gimnasia y Esgrima, and it is not being withdrawn.

Market

Gimnasia y Esgrima turn down Primorje for Ignacio Sabatini

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Market

Nahuel Barboza is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Gimnasia y Esgrima is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Squad

Words at Gimnasia y Esgrima training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Franco Saavedra 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 dugout

Ignacio Sabatini frozen out at Gimnasia y Esgrima

This is not rotation. Ignacio Sabatini has not been in the manager's plans for some time, and nobody at Gimnasia y Esgrima is pretending otherwise.

Squad

Daniel Paz signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Daniel Paz and Gimnasia y Esgrima agree another 3 years.

The dugout

Franco Saavedra 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 Gimnasia y Esgrima, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Market

Facundo Lencioni linked with a move away

The name of Facundo Lencioni keeps appearing in other people's back pages. Gimnasia y Esgrima say nothing, which says plenty.
