Squad

A fracture rules Jiří Texl out for 127 days

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

Market

Jáchym Šerák has said yes to Jablonec

The last thing about a transfer that is still about the player is his signature on his own terms, and it is there. Prostějov have lost him in all but the paperwork.

Transfer targets

Adam Kadlec will not be coming to Prostějov

Terms were offered and declined. Whether it was the wages, the role or the town, nobody at Viktoria Plzen is saying, and nobody at Prostějov is enjoying the guessing.

Squad

Jáchym Šerák in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Prostějov this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Boardroom

Prostějov agree a free transfer for Zdeněk Toman

Nothing happens for months and then he simply arrives, at no cost, having signed a pre-contract while still turning out for somebody else. It is the least dramatic way to sign a footballer and frequently the shrewdest.

Squad

A row about effort at Prostějov

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

Transfer targets

Door shut on Sebastian Boháč

Prostějov asked and Karviná said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Squad

Prostějov count the cost of losing Daniel Soucek

15 days, the scan says, and scans are kinder than reality. The fixtures in that window have just become somebody else’s job.

The dugout

Petr Potměšil asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Market

Nathan Tukokana asks to leave Prostějov

“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.

Squad

Tempers go at Prostějov

Jáchym Šerák 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.

Squad

Prostějov count the cost of losing Daniel Soucek

44 days, the scan says, and scans are kinder than reality. The fixtures in that window have just become somebody else’s job.

Squad

Adam Dohnálek 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.

Loan watch

Michael Kühnel counts the days

“I watch every Prostějov game from here. That says everything about where my head is.” The loan at Zlate Moravce runs its course, but his heart never made the trip.

Market

The Jáchym Šerák talk will not go away

Another week, another link, another denial nobody quite believes. Prostějov know the market decides these things, not the back pages — but the back pages are louder.

Market

The shop window has Patrik Švestka in it

Prostějov have let the market know Patrik Švestka can be had. No price in the advert, but everyone in the trade knows roughly what it says.

The dugout

The manager plants his flag on Vojtěch Gornický

“Judge me on him.” Managers do not say that kind of thing by accident — it moves the pressure from Vojtěch Gornický’s shoulders onto his own, and both of them know it.

Squad

Clint Essers has settled at Prostějov

The shrug has gone, the language is coming, and he now argues in training like somebody who expects to be here next year. Half a signing's value is this and none of it appears on a fee.

In brief
