The Pachuca Chronicle
Squad24 Jul 2028
A fracture rules Andrés Micolta out for 131 days
Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Pachuca will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.
Match22 Jul 2028
Nowhere to hide for Pachuca
0‑3 against Pumas UNAM, and no complaints that would survive the replay. The manager spoke about character afterwards; the terraces used shorter words.
Market24 Jul 2028
Alejandro Andrade hands in a written request
“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Pachuca can pretend not to have heard.
Squad24 Jul 2028
A one-man rearguard from Carlos Moreno
There were 6 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.
Transfer targets24 Jul 2028
Pachuca agree $150.0K for Alejandro Arana
The clubs have shaken hands with Tijuana; the player has not yet. Personal terms are next, and personal terms are where more deals die than anybody prints.
Boardroom24 Jul 2028
5 academy graduates step up at Pachuca
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.
Transfer targets24 Jul 2028
Pachuca rebuffed over Rolando Flores
Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Queretaro have kept their man, and Pachuca go back to a list with one name crossed off it.
Squad24 Jul 2028
A falling-out at Pachuca
Hervin Goyes and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.
The dugout24 Jul 2028
The manager makes an example of Carlos Moreno
“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.
