Market

Anderson Ceará 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 The request is on a desk at Maritimo, and it is not being withdrawn.

Transfer targets

Maritimo make their move for Sala

$2.9M on the table at Estoril Praia. The manager wanted him, the board agreed a number, and the only voices still to be heard are the ones at the other club.

Market

Only the photograph left for Bryan Limbombe

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Bryan Limbombe will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Maritimo the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Transfer targets

An offer of $840.0K for Igor Lemos

Maritimo have gone to Sanjoanense with a bid, and the supporters have gone to the internet with an opinion about it. Whether either changes anything is up to the selling club.

Boardroom

Maritimo go back to the board over Igor Lemos

The number the board signed off was not enough. It has been asked again and raised its own offer to $964.6K — a club that wants Igor Lemos enough to be asked twice.

Transfer targets

Fafe tell Maritimo: Francisco Saldanha 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.

Squad

Real improvement from Selwyn Stevens at Maritimo

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Selwyn Stevens is 20, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

The dugout

Noah Madsen frozen out at Maritimo

This is not rotation. Noah Madsen has not been in the manager's plans for some time, and nobody at Maritimo is pretending otherwise.

Boardroom

5 academy players handed senior numbers at Maritimo

The morning the pathway stops being a brochure and becomes a team sheet. Most of them will not be here in three years; all of them have already done the hard part, which was getting to today.

In brief
