Not going: Iván Ramírez stays at Libertad

“I know what people will say. I know what I want, and it is here.” Omiya Ardija had the fee agreed and the shirt ready; they did not have the player, and now they will not.

Nicolás Freire 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 Libertad this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Words at Libertad training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Lorenzo Melgarejo 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.

Amín Molinas turns Brisbane Roar down

“It was not right for me. I am not going to explain why to anybody except the people I owe an explanation to.” A deal agreed between two clubs, and a player who declined to be part of it.

Libertad turn down Epicentr for Marcelo Fernández

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

Gustavo Aguilar stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Gustavo Aguilar and Libertad agree another 4 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Words exchanged at Libertad

Nicolás Freire 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.

Hugo Fernández 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.

Oscar Fernandez steps up from the Libertad academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Oscar Fernandez 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.

Gustavo Aguilar has his eye on Europe

It is not a grievance and it is not a demand: he wants to play continental football, and he has stopped hiding it. Whether Libertad can give him that is a question about the club, not about him.

Matías Rojas signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Matías Rojas commits to Libertad for another 3 years.

A falling-out at Libertad

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

A row about effort at Libertad

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