Market

Amedspor say no — this time

The offer from Trabzonspor for Mbaye Diagne was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Squad

Tempers go at Amedspor

Gift Orban 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.

Market

One of our own: Ali Celik joins the Amedspor first team

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

Market

One of our own: Umut Ozil joins the Amedspor first team

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

Market

One of our own: Tolga Ozil joins the Amedspor first team

Squad

A row about effort at Amedspor

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

Squad

Dia Saba signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Dia Saba commits to Amedspor for another 2 years.

Squad

Gift Orban 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 Amedspor this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Dia Saba 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.

Market

The clock runs on Dia Saba's contract

24 months left and silence from upstairs — no offer, no talks, nothing for his people to answer. Clubs that let a calendar do their negotiating usually end up negotiating with the calendar.

Transfer targets

Amedspor ask about Cajetan Lenz

A loan enquiry to VfL Bochum: cover, or a look at somebody the club cannot afford to buy yet. Either way the answer will come back inside the week.

Squad

Amedspor are still strangers to each other

6 new signings in one window. Every one may be an upgrade and the side can still be worse for a while, which is the part of a rebuild the verdicts never mention.

In brief
