Raynan in trouble away from the ground
Every paper's favourite story and every manager's least. What happened is being dealt with internally, which is the phrase clubs use when they would rather nobody asked again.

Andrés Desábato signs on for more
“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Andrés Desábato and Figueirense agree another 1 years.

Tempers go at Figueirense
Lucas Dias 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.

A row about effort at Figueirense
Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Flávio was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Lucas Teixeira steps up from the Figueirense academy
There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Lucas Teixeira 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.

Figueirense promote Brabo from within
The academy exists for exactly this morning. Brabo 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.

The manager makes an example of Fellipe Resende
“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Léo Maia wants to come home
“I did not go to Nova Iguaçu to sit and watch. I want to come back to Figueirense and fight for my place.” 0 appearances in 5 matches say the rest.

The Rodolfo talk will not go away
Another week, another link, another denial nobody quite believes. Figueirense know the market decides these things, not the back pages — but the back pages are louder.
In brief
- Market Talks stall between Figueirense and Tafinha
- The dugout Cainho has been promised minutes
- The dugout Figueirense fine Raynan
