Squad7 Jun 2038

A fracture rules Gabriel Cadavid out for 126 days

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

Boardroom7 Jun 2038

Pressure builds in the Aguilas Doradas boardroom

The directors have stopped offering the manager public warmth. In football that is usually the stage before the short statement.

Squad7 Jun 2038

Juan David Pertúz stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Juan David Pertúz and Aguilas Doradas agree another 2 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad7 Jun 2038

Words at Aguilas Doradas training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Alejo Fontanilla is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Squad7 Jun 2038

Manuel Sánchez de León 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 Aguilas Doradas this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match5 Jun 2038

A bad afternoon for Aguilas Doradas against Valledupar

1‑2 to Valledupar, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Player ratings7 Jun 2038

Sebastián Chacón was on a different afternoon to everybody else

8.24. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.

Boardroom7 Jun 2038

$1.1M taken back off the Aguilas Doradas table

What was available in the summer has quietly gone. Upstairs nobody will call it a change of ambition; downstairs nobody will call it anything else.

Player ratings7 Jun 2038

Nelson Romero could not find anything

5.77. Every footballer has these and most of them happen away from a full ground; his did not, and he will be aware of that all week.

From our football correspondent Steady

Squad29 Mar 2038

Ivan Martinez: 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.” Aguilas Doradas have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Market29 Mar 2038

Fabian Diaz is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Aguilas Doradas is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Squad29 Mar 2038

Manuel Sánchez de León 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 Aguilas Doradas this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match27 Mar 2038

Patriotas take the points off Aguilas Doradas

Beaten 0‑1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Squad29 Mar 2038

The manager makes an example of Manuel Sánchez de León

“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.

Squad29 Mar 2038

Christian Gavranovic has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Aguilas Doradas 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.

In brief
