Squad8 Mar 2027

28 days out for Adrián Romero after a fracture

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

Market8 Mar 2027

Jhon Vásquez puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Deportivo Cali, and it is not being withdrawn.

Market8 Mar 2027

Miguel Sánchez is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Deportivo Cali is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Squad8 Mar 2027

Pedro Gallese stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Pedro Gallese and Deportivo Cali agree another 2 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad8 Mar 2027

A row about effort at Deportivo Cali

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

The dugout8 Mar 2027

The manager makes an example of Pedro Gallese

“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.

Match6 Mar 2027

Once Caldas take the points off Deportivo Cali

Beaten 0‑2, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

The dugout8 Mar 2027

Kevin Moreno faces the questions

“We were not good enough today and I am not going to dress it up.” Kevin Moreno after 0‑2, in the tone of a man who knows the next question and does not intend to answer it.

The dugout8 Mar 2027

A promise honoured for Daniel Giraldo

It is not much of a headline and it is the reason players believe the next promise. Deportivo Cali told Daniel Giraldo something would happen and then it happened, which in this industry passes for remarkable.

Squad4 Jan 2027

Alejandro Rodríguez breaks a bone — 34 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 34 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Market4 Jan 2027

Edwin Velasco asks to leave Deportivo Cali

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad4 Jan 2027

Emanuel Reynoso is named among the best

There are footballers who have a good season and footballers a season is remembered for, and the second kind get their names read out in a hall in the summer. Deportivo Cali will be quietly delighted and privately nervous.

The dugout4 Jan 2027

Alejandro Rodríguez says Deportivo Cali went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Boardroom4 Jan 2027

Deportivo Cali go back to the board over Joiner Moreno

The number the board signed off was not enough. It has been asked again and raised its own offer to $105.8K — a club that wants Joiner Moreno enough to be asked twice.

Transfer targets4 Jan 2027

Deportivo Cali bid $96.0K for Joiner Moreno

The offer went to Real Cartagena this week and it is theirs to answer. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loud the door closes.

Squad4 Jan 2027

Fernando Álvarez signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Fernando Álvarez commits to Deportivo Cali for another 4 years.

Squad4 Jan 2027

Words at Deportivo Cali training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Júnior Brumado 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.

Transfer targets4 Jan 2027

River Plate tell Deportivo Cali: Fabricio Bustos is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

The dugout19 Oct 2026

Daniel Giraldo: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Deportivo Cali have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Squad19 Oct 2026

6 saves: Pedro Gallese was the team

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the whole of the defence. 6 saves, several of them the kind nobody expects to see made, and ten outfield players who owe him a drink.

Market19 Oct 2026

Johar Mejía 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.

Match17 Oct 2026

4 matches without a win for Deportivo Cali

The run now stands at 4, and the questions being asked around Deportivo Cali are no longer polite ones.

Squad19 Oct 2026

Words at Deportivo Cali training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Emanuel Reynoso 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.

Match17 Oct 2026

Deportivo Cali are shipping goals every week

Two or more conceded in each of the last 4 matches. It is not one mistake repeating itself, which would be the easier thing to fix; it is a different one every week.

Match17 Oct 2026

Deportivo Cali come up short against Junior

Junior left with the points after a 1‑2 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Player ratings19 Oct 2026

Emanuel Reynoso was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 19. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.

The dugout19 Oct 2026

Kevin Moreno faces the questions

“We were not good enough today and I am not going to dress it up.” Kevin Moreno after 1‑2, in the tone of a man who knows the next question and does not intend to answer it.
