Squad11 Sep 2028

A fracture rules Silver Kallaste out for 105 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Elva will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Squad11 Sep 2028

Tempers go at Elva

Peeter Klein 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.

Transfer targets11 Sep 2028

Flora tell Elva: Rauno Sappinen 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.

Squad11 Sep 2028

Joonas Luts signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Joonas Luts commits to Elva for another 2 years.

Squad11 Sep 2028

Sander Soo 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.

Market11 Sep 2028

A stepping stone, not a home, for Gustav Kattago

He is doing his job and he is not settling. Elva were supposed to be a step up in his own reckoning, and his own reckoning has been adjusted since he arrived.

Market11 Sep 2028

Elva buy the years ahead of Krzysztof Glik

He is 18, and the scouting reports agree on the only line that matters: the ceiling. Signings like this are lottery tickets written by professionals.

Market11 Sep 2028

A long bet from Elva on Timi Mevlja

He is 18, and nobody at Elva signed him for this season. Deals like this are judged in four years, by people who may not still be in the building.

The dugout11 Sep 2028

Aleksandr Lohmatov has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Elva will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Market6 Mar 2028

Nino Cappon asks to leave Elva

“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.

The dugout6 Mar 2028

Cristopher Lahe: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Elva have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Boardroom6 Mar 2028

Elva told to sell

The instruction came from the boardroom and the dugout did not agree with it. Somebody will go, the fee will be called good business, and the manager will spend the season rebuilding around the space.

Boardroom6 Mar 2028

Graduation day at Elva

4 boys move up, and somewhere in the building the people who coached them at twelve are quietly having the best morning of their working year. Nothing about this shows up in a result and it is why the academy exists.

Match4 Mar 2028

The drought breaks for Elva

6 without a win is the sort of run that changes how a town talks about its club, and Harju JK Laagri were the afternoon it stopped. Nothing is fixed by one result and everything feels different by one.

Squad6 Mar 2028

A row about effort at Elva

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

The terraces6 Mar 2028

The crowd has taken to Raiko Ilves

At 21 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

One of our own: Karol Sorga joins the Elva first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Karol Sorga is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.
