Antonio Sivera turns PSV down
“It was not right for me. I am not going to explain why to anybody except the people I owe an explanation to.” A deal agreed between two clubs, and a player who declined to be part of it.

Alavés rebuffed over Antony
Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Betis have kept their man, and Alavés go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Raúl Núñez steps up from the Alavés academy
