A knee injury of the worst kind for Jakub Nicolas Tišťan
23 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Slávia TU Košice lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Andréa Librici is on his way
The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Slávia TU Košice is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

The paperwork begins on Juanmi Carrión
A medical, a signature, a shirt held up in front of a sponsor’s board. Slávia TU Košice have done the hard part with Spartak Trnava, and the part that remains is the part supporters actually see.

Ján Murgaš will not be coming to Slávia TU Košice
Terms were offered and declined. Whether it was the wages, the role or the town, nobody at MFK Ruzomberok is saying, and nobody at Slávia TU Košice is enjoying the guessing.

Slávia TU Košice to lose Andréa Librici for free
There is no worse way to lose a footballer. Andréa Librici has pre-agreed a move away, which means every appearance between now and June is made by a man the club can no longer sell, and somebody upstairs will be asked why the contract was allowed to get here.

Tempers go at Slávia TU Košice
Papalélé 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.

5 academy graduates step up at Slávia TU Košice
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.

Slávia TU Košice rebuffed over Marek Ujlaky
Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Spartak Trnava have kept their man, and Slávia TU Košice go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Marek Václav 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.
