  1. Clashed with Yann Karamoh over training standards

    Minor
    Cause
    The disagreement started because they judged training effort very differently. It played out on the training ground in front of the rest of the squad.
    Outlook
    Likely to settle unless repeated within the next few weeks.

  2. Borja Sainz, a compatriot, joined the squad

    Moderate
    Cause
    Shared nationality and language helped this take root. The language gap is making integration harder.
    Outlook
    Settling-in period is still under way.

  3. Joining one of the elite clubs in the game

  4. Struggling to settle into the squad

    Serious
    Cause
    The settling-in period at a new club is the bigger picture. The language gap is making integration harder.

    Settling-in period is still under way.

  5. A career-defining chance to play for an elite club

    Major
    Cause
    Mutual professional respect underpins this. The gap in reputation between them is being felt in the dressing room.
    Outlook
    Expectations may build after a stand-out moment.

  6. Sudden media glare after the high-profile move

    Moderate

  7. Personality clash with Gabriel Veron

    Minor
    Cause
    Their personalities have rubbed against each other for a while now. It played out behind the dressing-room door, away from the cameras.
    Outlook
    Likely to settle unless repeated within the next few weeks.

  8. Worried by competition from a new signing Gustavo Silva
