Squad9 Nov 2026

A fracture rules Tomás Molina out for 92 days

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

Squad9 Nov 2026

10 saves: Brayan Cortés was the team

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the whole of the defence. 10 saves, several of them the kind nobody expects to see made, and ten outfield players who owe him a drink.

Match7 Nov 2026

The wait goes on for Argentinos Juniors

9 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

Squad9 Nov 2026

Claudio Bravo signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Claudio Bravo and Argentinos Juniors agree another 4 years.

Squad9 Nov 2026

A falling-out at Argentinos Juniors

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

The dugout9 Nov 2026

Sebastián Prieto dropped after a run of poor form

The one version of being left out a player cannot argue with, and the one he takes worst. Somebody else has been better and the team sheet says so, in public, every week until it changes.

Match7 Nov 2026

Argentinos Juniors share the spoils with Banfield

A 1‑1 draw with Banfield leaves the dressing room somewhere between relief and regret.

Player ratings9 Nov 2026

Nobody could get near Nicolás Oroz

Successful dribbles: 14. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

The dugout9 Nov 2026

Claudio Bravo 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.

Squad26 Oct 2026

109 days out for Tomás Molina after a fracture

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

Match24 Oct 2026

No end in sight to Argentinos Juniors's wait for a win

7 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Argentinos Juniors has to find a result from somewhere.

Squad26 Oct 2026

Words at Argentinos Juniors training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Alan Lescano 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.

The dugout26 Oct 2026

The manager makes an example of Brayan Cortés

“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.

Player ratings26 Oct 2026

Ninety minutes of Hernán López Muñoz at his very best

Marked 8.06. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Argentinos Juniors.

Squad26 Oct 2026

A falling-out at Argentinos Juniors

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

Player ratings26 Oct 2026

Claudio Bravo ran the middle of the pitch — 6.84

He won it back and then made something of it, which is two jobs and the reason the scoreline looks the way it does. 9 combined actions and a mark of 6.84, and not one of them will make a highlights package.

Match24 Oct 2026

Argentinos Juniors caught on 90 minutes

The board was up, the win was priced in, and then Gimnasia La Plata scored. There is no worse minute to concede in and the ground emptied in the silence that follows one.

Squad26 Oct 2026

Argentinos Juniors lose Ryoga Kida

32 days, the medical staff say, and medical staff are optimists by profession. The team sheet will look wrong without him.

Squad12 Oct 2026

A fracture rules Tomás Molina out for 125 days

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

Squad12 Oct 2026

A falling-out at Argentinos Juniors

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

Squad12 Oct 2026

Real improvement from Thiago Berterame at Argentinos Juniors

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Thiago Berterame is 20, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

Boardroom12 Oct 2026

Argentinos Juniors beat the market to Nahuel Brunet from Godoy Cruz

Godoy Cruz will keep picking him until June and will get nothing for him after it. Nahuel Brunet has pre-agreed a move to Argentinos Juniors, and the only people who lose in that arrangement are the ones who let the contract run down.

Squad12 Oct 2026

Gastón Verón signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Gastón Verón commits to Argentinos Juniors for another 3 years.

The dugout12 Oct 2026

Iván Morales knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Argentinos Juniors, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Looking ahead12 Oct 2026

Tomás Molina goes back to face Huracán

Every squad has one of these fixtures for somebody every season. This one is Tomás Molina’s: the club that knew him first, the supporters who will decide in the first minute whether to applaud, and Argentinos Juniors needing him to play as if none of it matters.

Loan watch12 Oct 2026

6 goals on loan for Maximiliano Romero

5 appearances at Colo-Colo and the goals keep coming. Argentinos Juniors are watching this more closely than the borrowing club would like.

The dugout12 Oct 2026

When it matters, Martín Reinoso plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

Market10 Aug 2026

Argentinos Juniors say no — this time

The offer from Real Avilés for Facundo Jainikoski 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.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Alan Lescano stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Alan Lescano and Argentinos Juniors agree another 5 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Tempers go at Argentinos Juniors

Alan Lescano 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.

Market10 Aug 2026

Cartagena are about to pick up the phone

A conversation is coming this week. Argentinos Juniors will put a number on him, and from there it stops being football and becomes arithmetic.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Words at Argentinos Juniors training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Joaquín Gho 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.

Match8 Aug 2026

Argentinos Juniors rescue it on 87 minutes

Behind, and beaten by any honest reading, until minute 87. Estudiantes had the points in their pocket and a corner of the ground still believed, which is generally when it happens.

The dugout10 Aug 2026

No hiding place for Iván Morales

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

Match8 Aug 2026

Diego Porcel rescues a point for Argentinos Juniors

It needed Diego Porcel to find the net to bring anything home at all: 1‑1 against Estudiantes, and half the dressing room will call it a point won.

The dugout10 Aug 2026

Tomás Molina knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Argentinos Juniors, and both men came out saying it was fine.
