Transfer targets13 Dec 2027

$820.0K settles it between the clubs for Wuilker Fariñez

Millonarios have accepted the money. What Deportivo Pereira do not yet have is the man, and between here and the photograph is a conversation about wages that both sides are dreading.

The terraces13 Dec 2027

Deportivo Pereira sell a favourite for $1.5M

The accountants will call it good business and they will be right, which is not the point anybody outside the boardroom is making. Thiago Perugini was one of the reasons people came, and $1.5M does not replace that by itself.

Market13 Dec 2027

Walmer Pacheco wants European nights

The general version of this complaint is that a player wants more. The specific version names the thing: he wants to walk out under floodlights against clubs from other countries, and he has stopped pretending otherwise.

Transfer targets13 Dec 2027

Goor Córdoba Mena is a medical away from Deportivo Pereira

The deal with Deportes Quindio is done in every sense but the one that puts him on the pitch. Nothing goes wrong at this stage, except on the occasions when it does.

Market13 Dec 2027

Deportivo Pereira sell Thiago Perugini for $1.5M

Thiago Perugini has left for Alianza Lima in a $1.5M deal. The accountants are pleased; the supporters are less certain.

Squad13 Dec 2027

Words exchanged at Deportivo Pereira

Sebastián Acosta and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Boardroom13 Dec 2027

Deportivo Pereira agree a free transfer for Juan José Cataño

Nothing happens for months and then he simply arrives, at no cost, having signed a pre-contract while still turning out for somebody else. It is the least dramatic way to sign a footballer and frequently the shrewdest.

Transfer targets13 Dec 2027

Door shut on Kadir Barría

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

The dugout13 Dec 2027

No hiding place for Yeison Suárez

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

Boardroom6 Dec 2027

Camilo Diaz has until the next board meeting

What was said behind closed doors has now been said in front of a microphone. Everybody at Deportivo Pereira can do the arithmetic, including the man it is aimed at.

Boardroom6 Dec 2027

The Deportivo Pereira board call everybody in

Nothing has been announced and everybody understands what it means. A board that summons the whole football department on a Tuesday morning is a board that has stopped believing the problem will fix itself.

Squad6 Dec 2027

Sebastian Diaz out for 29 days

The medical room confirms 29 days on the sidelines for Sebastian Diaz, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

Squad6 Dec 2027

A falling-out at Deportivo Pereira

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

Transfer targets6 Dec 2027

Deportivo Pereira rebuffed over Panagiotis Tsantilas

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

Market6 Dec 2027

Alianza Lima are about to pick up the phone

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

Squad6 Dec 2027

A row about effort at Deportivo Pereira

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

The dugout6 Dec 2027

The manager makes an example of Marco Pérez

“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.

Transfer targets6 Dec 2027

Deportivo Pereira try to borrow Antony Medrano

Vizela have been asked whether they would lend him. Loans are agreed quickly or not at all, and this one will be one or the other by the weekend.

Squad15 Nov 2027

A knee injury of the worst kind for Danilo Ortiz

17 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Deportivo Pereira lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

The dugout15 Nov 2027

Duván Mósquera keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Deportivo Pereira may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Squad15 Nov 2027

Words exchanged at Deportivo Pereira

Sebastián Acosta and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Squad15 Nov 2027

Deportivo Pereira lose Thiago Perugini

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

Squad15 Nov 2027

Words at Deportivo Pereira training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Marcus Vinicius 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 dugout15 Nov 2027

Sebastián Acosta has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Deportivo Pereira will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.

The dugout15 Nov 2027

Richard Rentería 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 Deportivo Pereira, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Market15 Nov 2027

The Sebastián Acosta question follows Deportivo Pereira around

Every press conference now starts and ends the same way: with Sebastián Acosta’s future. The manager has run out of new ways to say nothing.

The dugout15 Nov 2027

Marco Pérez has been promised minutes

A conversation in the manager’s office, and a commitment that came out of it. Promises like that are cheap to make and expensive to break, and Marco Pérez has written the date down.
