From our football correspondent Triumph

Squad

Frederik Lauenborg has been here 14 seasons

173 appearances across 14 seasons in one shirt. Nobody builds a career like that on purpose any more; it happens to a certain kind of footballer at a certain kind of club.

Squad

Paul Izzo signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Paul Izzo commits to Randers for another 3 years.

Squad

Tempers go at Randers

Paul Izzo 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.

Match

Randers get the job done against SonderjyskE

A 1‑0 win over SonderjyskE, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Squad

Words at Randers training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Axel Henriksson 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.

Player ratings

One of those days for Thibault Klidjé

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.19, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Market

36 months and counting on Paul Izzo

Still no offer on the table, and Paul Izzo’s deal keeps shrinking. In boardroom language, silence this long stops being an oversight and starts being an answer.

Player ratings

Cyril Edudzi beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 15. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Transfer targets

A loan move for Sean Steur is in the works

Randers have made the call to Newcastle United. No fee, a share of the wages, and a spare shirt in the position where the squad has been thinnest all season.

In brief
