Market21 Aug 2028
Osasuna turn down Sanluqueño for Lucas Torró
The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.
Market21 Aug 2028
Osasuna get their man
The chase for Dani Díaz ended with $12.3M changing hands and Celta out of reasons to say no. The supporters will judge the fee the only way that matters: on Saturdays.
Match19 Aug 2028
The wait goes on for Osasuna
7 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.
Transfer targets21 Aug 2028
Osasuna rebuffed over Diego García
Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Gimnàstic have kept their man, and Osasuna go back to a list with one name crossed off it.
Transfer targets21 Aug 2028
No deal for Tincho at that price
Osasuna offered $3.6M; Castellón said it was not close. The manager will be told the money is still there for the right player, which is what managers are told.
Squad21 Aug 2028
Tempers go at Osasuna
Aimar 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.
Boardroom21 Aug 2028
5 academy graduates step up at Osasuna
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.
The dugout21 Aug 2028
Sergio Herrera 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.

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