Squad

A one-man rearguard from Christian Nwoke

There were 6 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Transfer targets

No deal for Markus Solbakken at that price

Aarhus Fremad offered $1.1M; AGF said it was not close. The manager will be told the money is still there for the right player, which is what managers are told.

Transfer targets

Håvard Vatland Karlsen will not be coming to Aarhus Fremad

Terms were offered and declined. Whether it was the wages, the role or the town, nobody at Haugesund is saying, and nobody at Aarhus Fremad is enjoying the guessing.

Squad

Damian van Bruggen in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Aarhus Fremad this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Transfer targets

Door shut on Hjalte Boe

Aarhus Fremad asked and FC Nordsjaelland said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Squad

A row about effort at Aarhus Fremad

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

Market

Aarhus Fremad promote Mathias Falk from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Mathias Falk has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

Market

Nicolai Damsgaard steps up from the Aarhus Fremad academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Nicolai Damsgaard has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

Market

Aarhus Fremad promote Casper Vestergaard from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Casper Vestergaard has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad

Baptiste Rolland stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Baptiste Rolland and Aarhus Fremad agree another 4 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad

Words at Aarhus Fremad training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Alexander Bundgaard 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 terraces

The crowd has taken to Kasper Kiilerich

At 20 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Squad

Alexander Bundgaard is a square peg at Aarhus Fremad

The system has changed and his position has not. A footballer can improve his form; he cannot improve the manager’s formation, and that is the whole of the problem.

Squad

Christian Nwoke wants to go home

“I have given this everything, but my family is not here and neither am I, not really.” A footballer can be coached out of bad form. Nobody has ever been coached out of this, and Aarhus Fremad know it.

Market

Aarhus Fremad and Alexander Bundgaard are talking past each other

“There is a gap, and pretending there is not helps nobody.” Neither side has moved, and the calendar is working for exactly one of them.

Transfer targets

Aarhus Fremad ask about Daniel Bassi

A loan enquiry to Lillestrom: cover, or a look at somebody the club cannot afford to buy yet. Either way the answer will come back inside the week.

Transfer targets

A loan move for Håvard Vatland Karlsen is in the works

Aarhus Fremad have made the call to Haugesund. No fee, a share of the wages, and a spare shirt in the position where the squad has been thinnest all season.

The dugout

Half-satisfied: Mathias Delaney on the draw

“There are things I liked and things we will be doing on Tuesday until they are right.” 0‑0, and a manager who had already decided what Tuesday looked like.
