Squad

Patrick Preciado says Deportivo Pasto 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.

Squad

Jaider Victoria stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Jaider Victoria and Deportivo Pasto agree another 4 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad

Cristian Peñate gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Market

Tomás Maya hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Deportivo Pasto can pretend not to have heard.

Squad

Fabry Castro: 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 Pasto have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Market

Alejandro Amaya is a Deportivo Pasto player

The fee is $170.0K, the contract is signed, and the argument about whether he is worth it can begin. Patriotas drove a hard bargain; time will say who won it.

Boardroom

Pressure builds in the Deportivo Pasto boardroom

The directors have stopped offering the manager public warmth. In football that is usually the stage before the short statement.

Market

Harrinson Mancilla moves on

La Equidad pay $100.0K, and the deal is done. The number reads well on a balance sheet; whether it reads well on the pitch is next season's question.

Squad

Edwin Velasco 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 Pasto, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Market

The Mateo Garavito talk will not go away

Another week, another link, another denial nobody quite believes. Deportivo Pasto know the market decides these things, not the back pages — but the back pages are louder.

Market

Deportivo Pasto bring in Juan Romano on loan

A season-long audition: Cortulua still own him, but the shirt and the minutes are Deportivo Pasto's to give. A loan is a bet both clubs believe they are winning.

Market

Tomás Maya placed on the list

Deportivo Pasto have made Tomás Maya available for transfer. A career at this club is over in all but paperwork.

Boardroom

Juan Mina has until the next board meeting

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

Market

Harrinson Mancilla hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Deportivo Pasto can pretend not to have heard.

Market

Deportivo Pasto turn down Alianza Petrolera for Ronald Mayo

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

Squad

Iago Herrerín stays put

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

Squad

Juan José Castaño gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Squad

Deportivo Pasto’s own kid cannot get a game

At 33, Andrey Estupiñán has come through every age group this club has, and now watches a borrowed player of much the same level start every week. An academy notices these things, and so do the parents in the stand.

Market

Tomás Maya told to find a new club

“They were honest with me, and I would rather know.” Tomás Maya has been informed he is not in the manager's thinking at Deportivo Pasto.

Squad

Johan Caicedo 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 Pasto, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Boardroom

Deportivo Pasto pull $3.2M back off the table

The money that was there in the summer is not there now. Nobody upstairs calls this a change of ambition, and everybody downstairs reads it as one.

Squad

The manager comes out for Mayer Gil

Public backing, and the sort that costs a manager something if it turns out to be wrong. Mayer Gil has been told in front of everybody that the shirt is his.

Boardroom

The silence upstairs is getting loud at Deportivo Pasto

Nobody on the board has said anything against the manager, which is the point — they have stopped saying anything for him either.

Squad

Tomás Maya says Deportivo Pasto 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.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Ronald Mayo

“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.

Market

Jonathan Perlaza asks to leave Deportivo Pasto

“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.

Market

Deportivo Pasto turn down Real Cartagena for Jonathan Perlaza

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

Market

Deportivo Pasto sell Nicolás Gil for $420.0K

Nicolás Gil has left for Envigado in a $420.0K deal. The accountants are pleased; the supporters are less certain.

Squad

Tomás Maya stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Tomás Maya and Deportivo Pasto agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Match

Deportivo Pasto come up short against Boca Juniors

Boca Juniors left with the points after a 1-2 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Edwin Velasco

“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.
