Marked for André Horta

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Squad16 Nov 2026

A fracture rules Luiz Adriano out for 76 days

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

Squad16 Nov 2026

Nico Melamed stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Nico Melamed and Almería agree another 4 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad16 Nov 2026

A falling-out at Almería

Daijiro Chirino and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

The dugout16 Nov 2026

No hiding place for Álex Muñoz

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Álex Muñoz, and the manager let it.

The dugout16 Nov 2026

Andrés Fernández 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.

The dugout16 Nov 2026

André Horta gets picked when it counts

Every manager keeps a short list in his head of the men he wants on the pitch when the stakes rise, and it is never published. The team sheets for the big afternoons say André Horta is on it.

Looking ahead16 Nov 2026

Javi Muñoz faces his old club

Mirandés next, and one man in the Almería dressing room knows their training ground better than his own. The reception will tell him what they thought of him.

Loan watch16 Nov 2026

Lucas Robertone keeps scoring at Vélez

11 appearances away from home and 6 goals to show for them. Every one of them makes next summer's conversation a little more expensive.

Squad16 Nov 2026

Álex Muñoz wants to know why he earns less

Numbers do not stay secret in a dressing room. He is not asking for more than he is worth; he is asking why somebody beside him is worth more, and Almería have no good answer.

Squad24 Aug 2026

49 days out for Álex Muñoz after a fracture

A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. Almería will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.

Match22 Aug 2026

Almería tear Huesca apart

Rarely has this fixture seen a display like it: 3‑0 against Huesca, and it could have been more.

Market24 Aug 2026

Almería say no — this time

The offer from Levante for Sergio Arribas 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.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Sergio Arribas takes the match ball home

3 goals in one afternoon from one man. The other players were also present, a witness confirmed.

Market24 Aug 2026

Eyes on Rodrigo Ely again

The phone has started ringing about Rodrigo Ely again, and this time the name on the line is Cádiz. Almería are listening politely and promising nothing.

Squad24 Aug 2026

A falling-out at Almería

Daijiro Chirino and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Transfer targets24 Aug 2026

Door shut on Germán Valera

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

Squad24 Aug 2026

A row about effort at Almería

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

Player ratings24 Aug 2026

One of those days for Sergio Arribas

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.31, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Squad3 Aug 2026

74 days out for Álex Muñoz after a fracture

A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. Almería will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.

Market3 Aug 2026

Newport County come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Almería did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Market3 Aug 2026

Sergio Arribas wants to know where this is going

“I want to win things, and I would like to do it here.” Nothing has been demanded and nothing has been threatened — but a boardroom at Almería hears a sentence like that exactly as it was built.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Adrián Embarba stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Adrián Embarba and Almería agree another 2 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Tempers go at Almería

Mikel Vesga 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.

Transfer targets3 Aug 2026

Almería rebuffed over Juan Cruz Cortazzo

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Gimnasia La Plata have kept their man, and Almería go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Market3 Aug 2026

Rodrigo Ely has his eye on Europe

It is not a grievance and it is not a demand: he wants to play continental football, and he has stopped hiding it. Whether Almería can give him that is a question about the club, not about him.

Squad3 Aug 2026

André Horta 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.

Market3 Aug 2026

Talks stall between Almería and Adrián Embarba

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.
